Understanding the cause helps prevent it happening again once the immediate repair is done.
Uninsulated pipework in lofts, garages and external walls freezes in cold snaps. As ice expands, it splits the pipe, which often isn't discovered until it thaws and leaks.
Many Wimbledon and Raynes Park period properties still run some original copper or lead pipework, which corrodes and weakens over decades of use.
Excessive mains pressure puts continuous strain on pipe joints and fittings, eventually causing a failure at the weakest point in the system.
DIY work, drilling into walls, or building work can unknowingly pierce a pipe run, which may not become apparent until water pressure forces it open fully.
The first priority is stopping the flow of water, either by locating your stopcock or isolating the specific pipe run if the main supply can't be shut off.
Where the pipe is hidden behind a wall, under a floor, or in a ceiling void, we use leak detection equipment to pinpoint the burst without unnecessary damage to your property.
Depending on the damage, this may mean a section replacement, a compression fitting repair, or re-routing the pipe entirely if the original run is beyond repair.
The repaired section is pressure tested before the water supply is fully restored, and we provide photographic documentation for any insurance claim.
Speed matters first, then a permanent fix — not a temporary patch that fails again within months.
The damage from a burst pipe compounds by the hour, not the day.
Water travels through floor voids and wall cavities far beyond the visible leak point, often affecting rooms and floors below the original burst.
Prolonged water exposure weakens plasterboard and timber, and can bring water into contact with electrical wiring, creating a genuine safety hazard.
Damp conditions from an unresolved leak allow mould to establish within 24–48 hours, which is far more difficult and costly to remediate than the original leak.
Most home insurance policies expect leaks to be addressed promptly. We document the repair thoroughly to support your claim, whenever it's needed.
Cost depends on accessibility, pipe location and whether leak detection is needed. All prices confirmed before we attend — no call-out charge.

“Water coming through the kitchen ceiling at 11pm, absolutely panicking. Talked us through finding the stopcock on the phone then had someone out within the hour. Found and fixed a split pipe in the bathroom above.”
“Pipe in the loft froze and split during the cold snap, only found out when it thawed and water came through the landing ceiling. Repaired properly and insulated the surrounding pipework to stop it happening again.”
“Damp patch on the living room wall that kept growing for weeks, no idea where it was coming from. Leak detection found a hidden pipe leak behind the plasterboard, fixed and documented for our insurance claim.”

Turn off the water at the stopcock if you can locate it, switch off any electrics near the leak at the consumer unit if it's safe to do so, and try to catch or divert water away from electrics and furniture.
Most home insurance policies cover sudden burst pipe damage, though cover for the repair itself varies by policy. We provide photographic evidence and a detailed invoice to support any claim.
