AFS attended a plumbing emergency in New Parks, Leicester, after a flexible tap connector burst beneath a bathroom basin and allowed water to escape inside the unit.

What we found
The connector had deteriorated beneath the sink. Flexible tap connectors can fail through corrosion, age, damage, unsuitable routing or poor installation, and a small weakness can quickly become an active leak.
What AFS did
We isolated the water supply, stopped the leak and made the installation safe so no further water could escape from the failed connection.
