Protecting your home's value

Remove uncertainty before it costs you

Remove uncertainty before it costs you

Lead supply pipes are increasingly being flagged on RICS HomeBuyer and Building Survey reports for older properties.
When noted, this can lead to further investigation and sometimes price renegotiation.

Replacing an old lead pipe removes that uncertainty and modernises your water supply.

Where is my water pipe?

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.

What are the common issues?

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.
