Emergency plumbing in Downham Market.
Start with what you can see. Open one for what we do about it.
We shut the water off at the stopcock, cut out the split section of pipe and fit new pipe. That means the leak stops and the ceiling below it can start drying out.
We trace the leak back from the stain to the joint or pipe at fault, then repair that. That means the damp stops spreading instead of coming back in a fortnight.
We check the stopcock, the valves and the pipe for an airlock, in that order. That means you get the supply back without anyone guessing at it.
We clear the blockage without damaging the pan, then flush it through to check. That means the only bathroom in the house is back in use.
We replace the failed float valve and set the water level. That means the overflow pipe stops dripping and the tank stops filling itself.
We replace the seized or leaking valve and test the isolation. That means you can turn your own water off next time.
Not on the list? Tell us what is happening and we will tell you the sensible thing to do.

Downham Market is PE38, on the edge of the Fens and on the River Great Ouse. Denver has the sluice that holds the line between the tidal and non-tidal Great Ouse. Bexwell, Ryston, Hilgay, Southery, Fordham, Nordelph and Salters Lode share the district. The A10 runs north and south through the town, and the east to west A1122 from Outwell to Swaffham passes south of it.
Water where it should not be gets us out to Denver, Hilgay, Southery and Nordelph as well as the town. Say whether it is clean water or drain water, and give us the postcode when you ring.
