Burst pipe in Treptow-Köpenick: what you should know
A burst pipe sometimes gives warning signs, such as damp patches, rushing noises in the wall or falling water pressure. Often, though, it happens suddenly. Then quick action is needed.
The buildings vary a lot: old buildings in Alt-Treptow and Köpenick's old town, housing estates in Baumschulenweg and Oberschöneweide, new builds in Adlershof and many detached houses in Müggelheim, Rahnsdorf and Bohnsdorf. In houses close to the water, basements are particularly at risk from water damage.
Typical cases
- Damp patches on wall, ceiling or floor
- Rushing or hissing in the wall
- Water in the basement for no obvious reason
- Water spraying or running from a pipe
