Hi all,
My Parents internal water stop cock has seized, I've tried everything to budge it heat, hammer! etc etc but nothing.
External stop cock is missing in action, no sign of it anywhere outside the property or in the 3 man hole covers in the Garden!
I can see one across the road (marked W) but I am guessing that's not it or is it??
I have contacted Untied Utilities to find find where it is but not heard back yet.
I need to fit a new syphon in the toilet and there are no isolated valves grrrrrr.
Can I do it 'LIVE' opening the taps to reduce the pressure whilst I quickly add a isolating valve to the copper pipe?
Will I flood the kitchen?!!!!
Any advice? Yes they could get a Plumber in but I figure it's a easy job - famous last words!!
Ta.
