It is very important to act quickly and call a professional, such as London Plumbers, to protect your home and family.
When plumbing failure strikes suddenly, it might seem overwhelming. Yet, it is important to do the right first steps to avoid causing significant damage to your home in Clapham. While our team is on its way, a calm and swift action on your part can save a lot.
Step 1- Stop the Water at the Source
Find your main internal stop tap at once. It is usually under the kitchen sink, in a cupboard down the staircase and under the stairs. Turn it clockwise to make it close completely to prevent the flow of water into your property.
As a homeowner, it is crucial to know where this tap is located prior to an emergency.
Step 2: Switch off Electricity (When it is safe)
In case of water leakage around any electrical fittings, sockets, or your fuse box/consumer unit, then you should switch off your electricity supply at the mains; this is just a precautionary measure of safety.
Do not handle any electrical switches or appliances if you are standing in water.
Step 3: Contain the Water and Minimise the Damage
Wet towels, blankets, or mops can be used to absorb accumulating water, and buckets can be placed under dripping water.
Where possible, you should relocate carpets, furniture and any form of electricity to avoid additional damage. In the case of a clogged toilet, do not keep on flushing it.
Step 4: Open Taps to Empty the System
After switching off the main stop tap, open up your sink and bath cold taps and drain the rest of the water in your pipes. This relieves the pressure and reduce additional leakage from the burst or faulty section.
Step 5: Document the Damage to Your Insurer
Take clear photos or a brief video of the leak, the damaged region and any ruined items. Such evidence will turn out to be invaluable when you call your home insurance company to make a claim.
