This arm of the business was set up to specialise in the replacement of underground water mains to domestic
properties, using impact moles. Our reputation within this field has grown rapidly and the company is known
for the quality of its work and its reliability and innovation in difficult circumstances. We operate within
the Midlands region and are only too happy to provide further information or a survey quotation on request.
We are now able to offer a range of services including replacement water mains and ducts for pipes and
cabling on both domestic and commercial contracts. Our client base includes Local Authorities, Housing
Associations and Building Contractors. We take a very professional approach to work and are now approved
contractors to Severn-Trent Water plc and South Staffordshire Water plc.
Water Main Replacements
From time to time water mains need replacing, for various reasons such as bursts, poor flow and the possible
health risk of lead pipes. One of the considerations when replacing a water main is the method used to install
the pipe. If you have a newly resurfaced drive or a landscape garden you may not want to disturb it with the
old fashioned, time consuming trenching method.
We can offer a better, quicker way, with far less upheaval. A new water pipe can be installed using an impact
mole machine which burrows underground between two small launch pits, leaving the top surface undisturbed. When
the bore is complete the new pipe is pulled through, connections made, and the small launch pits re-filled and
made good.
Currently for the average domestic home, a new water main can usually be installed in one day.
