Replacing an existing supply

You might choose to replace the existing supply to your house if you're on a shared supply with a neighbouring property, if it's a lead service pipe or if you require an upsize to an existing connection.

 

Water

You may be eligible for our free lead pipe replacement scheme if your property has a lead water supply pipe and meets certain criteria. If you’re eligible, we’ll replace your lead pipe at no cost to you.

If you share a water supply with a neighbour and would like a separate connection, please see our shared separation scheme page. If you don’t meet the eligibility criteria and still wish to replace or upgrade your connection, you’ll need to apply for a new connection.
