OMG I can relate to this, Wednesday morning when I came downstairs there was water dripping through the ceiling and the carpet was wet on the bottom stairs. back upstairs to discover that all the bedding and towels in the water tank cupboard were seriously sodden (thankfully other wise all that escaped water may have brought the ceiling crashing to the floor downstairs). Stop cock closed, plumber called, who arrived 30 mins later. Discovered a small hole had formed by the header expansion tank, he went to the plumbers merchant got a new tank fitted it. All is now good again PHEW!!!!
Now I just await his invoice. Ho hum
Happy spring holiday to you
Holy shit! Looks like I'm nit the only lucky one, although your adventure is costing you money. My plumber didn't want any money, and imagine he came back yesterday as one pipe was wet still, so he needs to replace a piece of pipe after the holidays.
I guess luck does exist and sone of us get lucky from time to time. I'm glad no major damage was done.
Happy holidays to you too. Let me know about the bill though 😬
Cheers, you certainly were lucky, repairs for free! I guess my email will ping at the start of the working week , wonderful!
