Burst or frozen pipe in Lincoln: the basics
What the job involves
A burst pipe is an emergency: shut off the water first, then call a plumber. They will find the split (frozen pipes often split in lofts, garages and outside walls), cut out the damaged section and fit new pipe, then refill the system and check for other weak points.
Safety and good to know
A frozen pipe that hasn't burst can be thawed gently with warm (not boiling) water or a hairdryer, starting from the tap end; never use a blowtorch. In cold weather, keep the heating on low and insulate exposed pipes and tanks in the loft. LincsDirectory doesn't vet or endorse businesses — always check credentials and get a written quote.

What should I do first if a pipe bursts?
Turn off the water at the stopcock, open the cold taps to drain the pipes, switch off the boiler or immersion heater, and turn off the electricity if water is near any wiring. Then call a plumber and your insurer.
