Lead Pipe Replacement Scheme 

The supply pipe - running from your outside stop tap to your inside stop tap - is your responsibility as the homeowner.

The communication pipe - which connects your home to the water main in the street - is owned and maintained by your water company.

Here's the good news: If you replace your supply pipe, many water companies will then upgrade their communication pipe free of charge, completing the lead-free connection to your home.

How We Replace Your Lead Pipe

We deliver fast, precise work, with most lead replacements completed in just 1–2 days

Minimal Disruption

We install your new pipe using a technique called impact moling - a pneumatic “mole” creates a tunnel underground, avoiding the need to dig up your garden or drive and keeping disruption to a minimum.
