Midnight Emergency Plumbing Call-Out in Hemel Hempstead

The problem

Plumb Heating Ltd responded to an emergency call-out in the middle of the night after a burst plumbing fitting caused significant water damage to a kitchen ceiling.

Water had been leaking through the ceiling, saturating the plasterboard until it bulged and sagged under the weight of the trapped water.

Work carried out

• Emergency call-out in the middle of the night
• Investigation of the severe water leakage
• Careful removal of the affected ceiling, to prevent an uncontrolled collapse and to expose the pipework
• Repair of the damaged fitting
• Thorough testing of the plumbing system to confirm the leak had been resolved

The result

Once the source was found, the damaged fitting was repaired and the system tested to confirm the leak was fixed. Opening up the ceiling in a controlled way avoided further damage and gave full access to the pipework.
