What To Do If You Encounter A Burst Pipe

If you are experiencing a burst pipe, follow these steps to minimise damage and restore your home or business. 

Turn off the water supply immediately.

That is the first step you must take to prevent more damage from being done. As soon as you realise there has been a burst pipe, switch off the water supply to stop further leaking. You can find the main water valve near your pipes, where they connect to the primary water source. That is usually placed near the water meter. 

Assess the damage.

The damage might not be immediately noticeable, especially if it has been raining or involved a burst pipe in the yard. However, be sure to look for signs such as water damage on your ceiling or floors and wet carpets. That will better help you determine whether you need professional help and how much damage has been done.

How To Prevent Future Pipe Problems

A burst water pipe repair is a serious matter. It can damage your home and cause severe disruptions in your life. Therefore, you should work to prevent such problems from happening again. Here are some steps to take:

Keep an eye on outside pipes.

Your pipes are most vulnerable to bursting when they are exposed to freezing temperatures or freezing rain. Therefore, pay attention to any warnings issued by the weather bureau. In addition, keep an eye on pipes that may be exposed to freezing temperatures. 

Inspect your pipes.

You can inspect your home’s pipes at least once a year. That will help you identify problems as soon as they arise. As a result, you can take steps to fix them before they cause significant damage.

You should also inspect your piping system whenever you notice signs of leaks. Also, look for other issues, such as water hammering inside the walls or flushing toilets multiple times. 

Avoid using flexible plumbing hoses.

A flexible plumbing hose is an item that is susceptible to bursting. You must avoid using flexible plumbing hoses because they are not designed for long periods.

They will eventually break, causing a leak in the piping system. In addition, flexible plumbing hoses might also get damaged from cold temperatures or freezing rain.

Therefore, you should not use these types of hoses in your house. Instead, you should invest in other durable items such as long-lasting pipes and durable connectors.

Keep a shut-off valve handy.

It would be best to have a shut-off valve near all primary water valves on your property. That will allow you to turn off the water supply quickly whenever a burst pipe requires emergency repair.

Keep a pipe wrench handy.

A pipe wrench must be adequately sized for the diameter of your pipes. You can buy a pipe wrench at any hardware store. Hence, It can assist you in fixing bursts and water leaks quickly and efficiently.
