The typical cost of household damage caused by burst frozen pipes in the cold spell of 2010 averaged up to £7,000 per household. Make sure that both your buildings and contents insurance policies provide your home with sufficient cover.
Knowing where your stopcock is (water mains valve) means you can instantly turn it off the moment you find a burst pipe, reducing the damage to your house and belongings.
