Cold Weather Help and Advice

In the event of extreme weather and related issues, you may find it takes longer to get through to us on the phones, our colleagues will answer calls as soon as they can, but there could be a significant wait time due to the increase in calls generated by the event. You can request a call back if you are unable to wait on hold and our colleagues will call you back when your call back reaches the front of the queue.

Please remember all of our staff work very hard in difficult conditions to help resolve as many emergency repairs as possible, as quickly as possible.
