Signs Your Water Main May Need Replacing

Many underground water pipes gradually deteriorate over time. Although some problems can be repaired, a complete replacement is often the safest and most cost-effective long-term solution.

Common signs include:

• Low water pressure throughout the property
• Recurring underground water leaks
• Unexpected increases in water bills
• Brown or discoloured tap water
• Old lead water supply pipes
• Damp patches in gardens or driveways
• Burst or cracked underground water mains
• Corroded or ageing pipework

If you’ve noticed any of these problems, DrainMaintain can inspect your water supply and recommend the most suitable solution.
