sammason Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 I am in S6 and have no water downstairs though, oddly, I still have cold water in the bathroom. I've turned all the heating up to max, tried gently heating pipes and am now at a loss as to what to do for the best. Hope for warmer weather I suppose.

Same here i think it's the outside tap that feeds from the cold tap in kitchen that has frozen,ive wrapped the tap up now to thaw it,welcome by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nagel Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Careful when it thaws. We had a burst pipe almost exactly a year ago just before Christmas. We were away when it happened and arrived back to find the entire back of the house flooded and ruined by a burst pipe in the attic. It was fixed under insurance, but we spent Christmas and New Year in the Premier Inn and up till July in a house rented for us by the insurance company whilst our house was repaired.

shamal12 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Thankfully I don't think I have any water in the system indoors... problem seems to be that there is no water coming in through the mains pipe, so I can only assume that that is what is frozen up. Stopcock is turned off to stop any major floods if there is an unseen burst pipe somewhere. Assume that all one can do is wait for some warmer weather. (and go beg some water off neighbours...)

2's Company Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 went to have a shower before work to find the shower won't come on and the water supply light flashing. Could this mean the pipes are frozen or could it be broken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zayin_2000 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 water back on as ours thought i would put some towels round the pipe commin in the house. ours has like a little cupboard on the front and seems to have done the trick..Other than that the water board turned the water on buts it running and again..
