Safety first! Electricity and water are not a good mix, so switch the electricity off at the switchboard if needed first.
If there is still water leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to find a main valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, at any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there quickly to solve the issue.
While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important things close to the leak, and wipe up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
Help, I do not know where the main water shutoff valve is!
You might know it as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is generally found on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.

I have a plunger, can I unclog it myself?

How did the pipe start leaking?
Pipes and taps can break down for a range of reasons. They may simply be old and dilapidated. Or they may have iced up in very cold weather and cracked. Tree roots might have invaded underground pipes. Or there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed in the first place.
Once they are at your home, our on call plumber will diagnose the problem and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipework if needed to check for other problems.
