  • Problem diagnosis: low pressure, discoloured water or recurring leaks can indicate that replacement is needed.

  • Minimal excavation methods: where possible, we use installation techniques that reduce disruption to gardens, driveways and surfaces.
  • Careful installation: the new water main is laid and connected with close attention to quality and durability.
  • System checks: once installed, the new supply is tested to ensure it is working efficiently and correctly.
  • Site reinstatement: we always aim to leave the area as neat and tidy as possible after the work is complete.

Water Mains Installation FAQs

When would I need a new water mains installation?

You may need a new water mains installation if you are building a new property, replacing an old or damaged supply pipe, upgrading a poor water supply, improving flow or pressure, connecting an outbuilding, or replacing outdated pipework such as old lead supply pipes.

Can you replace old water supply pipes?

Do you install underground water pipes?

Can you help with lead pipe replacement?

Will installing a new water main cause a lot of disruption?
