Hi All, we arrived late last night to find that there is no water in the house, it's not obvious where the stop tap is. would anyone know who we could contact to get the water put back on? Any help would be very much appreciated

If you are on an urbanisation I suggest speaking to a neighbour to locate stop tap. It's common practice to turn water off when leaving the property so you don't have the worry of leaks when absent. It is usually found in a cabinet at front of the boundary wall (by a gate maybe). If not on an urbanisation and in Campo it will be somewhere where a meter reader has access to, so look outside. It should be in a cabinet/cupboard much larger than the electric meter. I guess this is a new property to you or not your property so ask the owner. If your property and your first time there it's a good thing to familiarise yourself with the services locations. Don't forget to turn your tap off when leaving.

Thank you so much, very helpful, we managed to speak to a neighbour this morning who showed us what to do and we have made a note of it for the future :)
