What Causes Pipes to Burst?

No matter what prevention measures you’ve taken in the past, sometimes burst pipes will just happen. There are two primary reasons why you may have to deal with a burst water pipe. The first is the result of corrosion that takes place inside the pipe and over time will cause the pipe to burst. The second is water pressure that is too high for your pipes to handle. Excessive internal pressure pushes outward. When the pressure becomes too high for the pipe to contain, it ruptures. Pipe bursts are a common problem in winter as the water can freeze and expand within the pipe. Increased demand on your pipes in summer can also lead to burst pipes.

What To Do First

The first thing to do in these situations should always be to cut off the water supply to the house or property by turning off the stop valve. If you can’t find it, we can help you find it over the phone. The good news? When you contact us at NLK Leak Detection Melbourne, you’ll be speaking directly with a fully qualified plumber who will advise you of what you need to do before we arrive. You also need to make sure that there are no electrical appliances within the range of the leaking water. If there is you may need to switch off the electrical mains also. Be sure to take photos of any damage for insurance purposes; it’ll make your claim process much easier.
