Signs You May Have a Lead Water Main
Why Replace Lead Pipes?
Older lead pipes can deteriorate over time and become increasingly prone to leaks, pressure loss, flow restrictions, corrosion and internal build-up.
Replacing ageing lead pipework can significantly improve overall water performance throughout the property.
Modern MDPE Water Main Installation
We replace old lead pipework using modern WRAS-approved MDPE pipe.
Minimal Disruption Installation
Most lead main replacements can be carried out using trenchless moling techniques.
This avoids the need for extensive trenches across driveways, patios, gardens and pathways. In many cases only two small excavations are required.
Thames Water Lead Replacement Scheme
In certain circumstances, Thames Water may contribute towards replacing their section of lead pipework where customers replace the private supply pipe.
We can advise on the process and provide certification relating to completed installations where applicable.
