COMMON CAUSES

What Causes Burst Pipes in the City of London

From Barbican’s residential towers to converted buildings near Bank, these are the causes our engineers see most often.

Frozen & Burst Pipes

Exposed pipework in plant rooms and outside walls can freeze and split in cold weather, common across older sections of the Barbican.

Ageing Pipework

Original pipework in converted office buildings near Moorgate and St Paul's can corrode and fail with age.

High Water Pressure

Excess mains pressure can stress joints and weak points in pipework over time, leading to sudden failure.

Accidental Damage

DIY work, drilling into walls, or nearby building work can accidentally puncture a pipe.

WHILE YOU WAIT

What to Do If You Have a Burst Pipe

Taking these steps immediately can significantly reduce water damage to your property while our engineer is on the way.

Turn off your water at the stopcock

Usually under the kitchen sink or in a utility cupboard. Turn clockwise to isolate the supply.

Turn off your boiler

If the burst is near your boiler or heating system, switch it off at the isolator. Don't dismantle anything.

Drain remaining water from taps

Open cold taps in the kitchen and bathroom to relieve pressure and slow the flow from the burst.

Document the damage

Photos and video for your insurance claim. Note when the burst started, for our written report.

⚠️ Do NOT attempt these yourself
