Common Causes of Burst Water Mains
Water mains can fail for a variety of reasons, many of which develop over time without obvious warning signs. Ageing pipework, corrosion, ground movement, freezing temperatures and increased water pressure can all weaken underground pipes, eventually leading to cracks or complete pipe failure.
External factors such as nearby construction work, heavy vehicle traffic or invasive tree roots may also damage underground water mains. Our engineers have extensive experience diagnosing the cause of pipe failures and providing the most appropriate repair solution to prevent recurring problems.
Common questions
Questions we are asked locally.
The questions that come up most often on jobs in this area.
See all FAQsWhat should I do if I think a water main has burst?
If you notice sudden flooding, a significant loss of water pressure or water surfacing from the ground, turn off your internal stop tap if it's safe to do so and contact a specialist as soon as possible. Prompt action can help minimise water damage and prevent the problem from worsening.
Can a burst water main cause damage to my property's foundations?
Yes. If left untreated, water escaping from a burst underground pipe can saturate the surrounding ground, potentially affecting driveways, landscaping and, in some cases, nearby foundations. Early detection and repair help minimise the risk of long-term structural damage.
How do you locate a burst water main underground?
We use specialist leak detection equipment that can accurately locate underground leaks without relying on extensive excavation. This allows us to pinpoint the damaged section of pipe, complete repairs more efficiently and minimise disruption to your property.
