How Can You Avoid Burst Pipes?

Burst pipes can cost up to and excess of £100,000 in property damage and this will be a very big issue for most people if it was to occur. However, there are several steps that you can take to try and prevent the issue of burst pipes.

The first step is to stop any flowing water as this will ease any pressure on the water pipes. This can be done easily by turning the supply off at the stopcock. Once this is done, you should open all your taps to avoid flooding in your property and soak up any water that comes out with thick towels to avoid large amounts of property damage. After you have taken these steps to stop the waterflow, you should seek professional plumbing to find the stem of the issue and repair the problem.

To avoid the situation all together, you should fix any issues such as dripping taps and problems with water tanks to ensure there are never any problems with your pipes and issues won’t occur.

Why Should You Install A Wet Room?

What Are The Benefits Of Wet Rooms?

Wet rooms are a great facility to have in any home and offer many benefits upon installation as well. If you are unsure whether a wet room would look right for your property, there are several factors you should consider:

Increases Space – By removing any unwanted features of your bathroom, a wet room will give you much more space to install the products you want so that there is more space if the room used to be cramped.

Drainage & Wet Proofing – Drainage and wet proofing will improve significantly in a wet room as you will not have to worry about water spreading around a room that is unequipped. Wet rooms involve priming the floor and lower walls to ensure they are completely wet proof and water does not affect your home.

Stylish – If you are worried about a wet room not looking good in your home, they are very stylish and provide a full room in your house with a modern look. As wet rooms are designed to drain as well, they are extremely easy to clean on a regular basis.

Will Wet Rooms Add Value To Your Home?

Wet rooms are very modern and a stylish part of your property and although high-quality wet rooms can cost between £5,000 and £10,000, they have many benefits and can add lots of value. If you are looking to sell your property in the future but only looking to add now, then a wet room is a great option.

When it comes to selling, having a wet room compared to a regular bathroom will attract more admirers, giving your home a more updated look. A wet room will certainly improve drainage in your home, meaning it is less likely to cause property damage and will save you money consistently.
