Domestic flooding incident in Ramsey 23 August 2010

Fire crews from Ramsey were called to assist with a domestic flooding incident in the St Paul's area on Friday evening.

The flooding involved a flat and subsequent business below. It was caused by a hot water pipe which had burst in the flat. The call was received at 7.36pm on Friday (August 20, 2010).

Crews assisted by stemming the leak and carrying out procedures to prevent further damage to the business below. They used hand tools, salvage sheets, wet and dry vacuum and lighting equipment from the appliance on scene.

The occupants of the flat were eventually re- housed in the vicinity. Crews remained in attendance approximately three hours before returning to station.
