Urgent Plumbing

Leaks and Bursts That Cannot Wait

A burst pipe, a leak through the ceiling or a flood under the sink gets worse for as long as the water runs. Floors, ceilings and wiring can all be damaged in minutes.

Emergency call-outs are part of our everyday plumbing work across Littleborough, Rochdale and Greater Manchester, with same-day call-outs when a job is urgent. Jaque stops the water, finds out why it escaped and fixes the cause.

Many bursts happen in a hard frost, when water freezes in a loft, a garage or an outside wall and splits the pipe. Others start with a worn hose, a failed joint or a nail through a pipe under the floor.

Landlords and letting agents can call on behalf of a tenant. Jaque deals with the tenant on site and tells you what he found and fixed.

An emergency repair gets the same care as a booked job. It is tested with the water back on and covered by our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Act Fast

Common Plumbing Emergencies and First Steps

Each emergency below has one safe thing you can do straight away. Do that first, then call, and Jaque will take it from there.

EmergencyWhat you seeWhat to do now

Burst Pipe

Water spraying or pouring from a pipe, a sudden drop in pressure, or a wet patch that keeps on spreading.

Turn the stop tap clockwise, switch off the heating and open the taps to drain the pipes.

Water Through a Ceiling

Drips, a bulging brown stain, or water running out of a light fitting.

Turn the water off, keep out from under the bulge and switch off that circuit at the fuse box if you can reach it dry.

Split Pipe Under a Sink

Water pouring out of a cupboard, often from a worn flexible hose or a loose joint.

Turn the small isolating valve on that pipe with a flat screwdriver. If the water keeps coming, use the main stop tap.

Overflowing Loft Tank

Water dripping through a bedroom ceiling, or running from an overflow pipe on the outside wall.

Turn off the stop tap so the tank stops refilling, then call and say what you can see.

Frozen Pipe

No water at a tap in a hard frost, or ice on a pipe in the loft or garage.

Turn the water off and warm the pipe slowly with a hairdryer or warm towels. Never use a naked flame.

Leaking Hot Water Cylinder

Water pooling around the cylinder, or a steady trickle from the small funnel on a pipe beside it.

Switch off the boiler and any immersion heater, turn off the stop tap and call.

I would highly recommend, the engineer, Jague was professional, efficient, and genuinely kind throughout. He quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem with my mum’s boiler to a high standard, and made sure everything was working properly before he left.
What really stood out was how helpful and reassuring he was. He didn’t just do the job and leave – he took the time to make sure my mum was okay and that everything was sorted. It’s rare to find someone so reliable, trustworthy, and caring. Excellent service from start to finish. Thank you!

Laura Thompson

Jaque arrived punctually, he replaced the shower taps quickly and was thorough and very clean and tidied up after himself. Jaque was overall a good energy to hv in the flat which is so important when you have randoms in your house. Punctual, thorough, quoted a good price and was humbly grateful for the tip I gave. Would recommend over and over.

Called JN Solutions on Sunday night as had a leak on my kitchen sink. Water was spraying everywhere.
They helped me out over the phone to shut the water off and then sent an engineer around who sorted the problem that night.
Can't recommend these guys highly enough.
Thanks again

While You Wait

Simple Steps That Save a Ceiling

A few calm minutes can save a floor, a ceiling or a room full of belongings. Do only what is safe, and leave the rest to Jaque.

Stop Tap Off
Turn it clockwise as far as it will go. In most homes it sits under the kitchen sink, and sometimes in a cellar or garage. If it will not budge, do not force it.
Heating Off
Switch off the boiler and the immersion heater, if you have one, before you start draining the pipes down. Leave them off until the leak is fixed.
Taps Open
Open the cold taps around the house, then the hot, to drain the water still sitting in the pipes. Flush each toilet once to empty the cisterns.
Power Off Near Water
If water has reached sockets, lights or an extension lead, switch off at the fuse box, but only if you can reach it dry. Never touch a switch with wet hands.
Move and Mop
Lift rugs, boxes and electrical items off wet floors and carry them to a dry room. Soak up what you can with towels and open a window to help it dry.
Photos for the Insurer
Take photos of the damage before you clear up, and of the leak itself if it is safe to. Then check whether the home insurance covers leaks.

Urgent or Not?

Knowing When a Leak Can Wait

Call straight away if water is running and you cannot stop it, if it is near electrics, or if a ceiling is bulging. Water near a fuse box is always urgent, and so is a burst pipe or no water at all in a freeze.

A dripping tap, a toilet that runs on or a slow drip into a bowl can usually wait for a booked visit. Closing the small valve under a sink or behind a toilet often buys time.

Not sure which one you have? Call and describe it, and Jaque will tell you honestly whether it needs him now or can wait for a booked visit.

Once the leak is fixed, give wet ceilings and walls time to dry out before anyone decorates. A ceiling that held a lot of water is worth having checked.

Afterwards, test the stop tap every few months so it turns freely when you need it. Keep the cupboard clear, keep a torch nearby and show everyone in the house where it is.

Quick Answers

Emergency Plumbing Questions

If water is running right now, call first and read later.

Do you offer 24/7 emergency plumbing in Littleborough?

Yes. If you need an emergency plumber in Littleborough, our 24/7 emergency call-outs cover burst pipes, floods and leaks. Jaque answers the phone himself and covers Rochdale and Greater Manchester too.

What should I do while I wait for an emergency plumber?

Turn the water off at the stop tap, switch off the heating and open the taps to drain the pipes. Move belongings out of the way and keep clear of wet sockets and lights.

Where is the stop tap in my house?

It is usually under the kitchen sink, and sometimes in a cellar or garage. Turn it clockwise to close it, and test it now and then so it turns when you need it.

Is a dripping tap an emergency?

Usually not. A drip, a slow leak into a bowl or a toilet that runs on can wait for a booked visit. Call an emergency plumber in Littleborough when water is running and you cannot stop it.

Will my home insurance cover a burst pipe?

Many home insurance policies cover escape of water, but it depends on the policy, so check with your insurer. Photos of the damage taken before you clear up will help a claim.

What if I can smell gas as well?

Leave the plumbing, turn off the gas at the meter if you can, open the windows and call the National Gas Emergency line on 0800 111 999. When the supply is safe again, Jaque can track down the fault and fix it, as he is a Gas Safe registered engineer.
