Why Beat The Freeze?
During the cold weather, we often have trouble with frozen pipes. A drop in temperature can cause water in pipes to freeze, triggering a burst when it thaws. A repair is then urgently needed, bringing you expense and inconvenience at a time of year when you’d least want to face it. That is why we're encouraging everyone to prepare their homes in time for winter and Beat The Freeze!
