TOP 5 most common emergency calls in winter

You can't always be prepared for everything - TOP 5 most common winter emergency calls

Sometimes building services fail. Floor heating pipe leaks, electricity is out, lock freezes. A key broken in the garage lock, a short circuit in the borehole and the radiators won't heat. Something should be done, but what?

Homeowners should check the condition of their property before the winter .We recommend thinking in advance about how to prevent pipes from freezing and what to do if they are already frozen. Although there is plenty to do, you don't have to do everything yourself. A plumber can get the pipes unblocked if they are not yet frozen, but if the pipes have frozen completely you may need to have them steam-blasted with a high-powered vacuum truck.

But we can't and can't plan for everything, and that's why we're here, to help our customers. We want you to live your daily and sacred life as smoothly as possible -no one has to cope or struggle alone.

Here are the five most common emergency calls handled through 24 Center in winter (Uusimaa)

  • The pipe is leaking, freezing or cracked
  • Electricity cut off 
  • Keys left at home or lost
