Questions

Frequently asked questions

Should I turn off the water outside?

Only use external controls if you are allowed to access them and it is safe. Many homes can be isolated at the internal stopcock.

Can a burst pipe be repaired immediately?

It depends on access, materials, parts and provider availability. The site does not promise same-day repair.
