ok is there anything we can do?
I have checked garage no signs of any problems, had a tub of water in there which is still liquid so I doubt the problem lies there. We had a few drips from kitchen tap (about once every 2 seconds) about 10 minutes ago but these have now dried up - I have left main tap open btw...
Rang water board no other reported cases but am waiting for them to get back to me. Not sure about immediate neighbour, neighbour 3 houses down is ok so at least I have access to water.
Other problem is know one knows where the supply comes from apparently!
Our houses (row of 4) were privately built in the 70's and are on the back of a car park of a sheltered housing complex. There is a separate stop cock on drive next door but apparently this does nothing. Neighbour at the end said he called water board to find source but know one could trace it and they even called one of those snake oil folks with hazel twigs with no luck Can't believe the water board would do that!
Anyway, do I have to wait for things to defrost naturally or should I call someone in to try to find our connection to main supply?
Also, if there is no external stop cock is the supplier responsible to my stop cock or just to the house boundary?
Help appreciated folks,
Olly.
