Thought I'd put this up as I've had to google it, in case anyone else needs the info!
Turn the water off - cold at the stopcock, hot at the immersion
Turn the frozen tap on
Heat with a hairdryer (plugged in via a RCD) starting at the taps and working your way back, about 1min per metre with a hairdryer is suggested!
Make sure someone watches the tap to shout when there is flow
Once flowing - Check for leaks along pipe
Turn on water
Check for leaks again
Pour a large glass of something rewarding (I'll wait till the 7pm Golden Hour comes but I have my eye on a glass of red!)
Horrible job!
