  • Burst water pipe.
    Not mine.
    Next door have an extension which borders our decking with an unlagged pipe running along the outside of the wall. It's burst, it's spraying water onto our decking. Next door is rarely in and we don't have a contact number.

    Is there any way I can stem the flow as an interim measure when I get home?
    I have access to a Robert Dyas so basic kit only. Thames won't come out to shut her water off, tried for the LOLs.

  • Do you not have access to their main stopcock in the street? Otherwise bash the live end of the pipe with a mallet until it breaks and then bend it over so it stops or at least slows/redirects the flow.

  • A length of hose over the pipe and jubilee clips to hold it on and hold it shut doubled over could do it.
