A Leak? Act Fast to Minimise Damage
Even a small water leak can cause significant damage if it's not dealt with quickly. Water can seep into walls, ceilings, flooring and electrical systems, leading to costly repairs and potential safety risks. The sooner you act, the better chance you have of preventing further damage to your property.
What To Do Immediately
If you discover a leak, take the following steps straight away:
✅ Turn off your main water supply at the stopcock to stop more water entering the system.
✅ Move furniture, valuables and belongings away from the affected area to minimise damage.
✅ Contain the leak by placing a bucket, bowl or other suitable container beneath dripping water. Use towels to soak up any excess water and help protect floors.
✅ Avoid using taps, toilets, washing machines, dishwashers or showers until the source of the leak has been identified and repaired.
