Water Pipe Replacements
Are you wondering what are some advantages of using a water main replacement service? First of all, changing your existing lead pipes with 25mm MDPE will significantly improve the quality of your drinking water. It will taste so much better thanks to the new plastic pipes. Once the new mains are installed, you will notice an increase in pressure and flow to your property, boosting the efficiency of the boiler, and therefore helping you to save money on your gas bill. There are obvious health benefits of replacing your old lead pipes with MDPE, as high exposure to lead can affect anyone, but it is especially harmful to pregnant women, babies, and children.

Lead Pipe Replacement in Stoke-on-trent
If your home has been modernised since 1970 and all of the pipes from the water company’s stop valve outside your home to the kitchen tap have been replaced, there should be no lead pipe on your property.
However, a third of properties in the North West built before 1970 are believed to still have some lead plumbing. If you live in an older property, your supply pipe – the underground pipe that connects your home to the public water mains – could be made of lead, and there’s a chance that there may be some lead pipes inside your home.
Is lead harmful?
In the past, lead was widely used for everything from plumbing to electronics.
It is now known that over time, exposure to lead can affect health, with the greatest risk being to children under six and to pregnant women.
As a result, the Government has banned the use of lead in many products, and it has not been used for water pipes since 1970. The Government also advises that we should minimise our exposure to lead from all sources, including drinking water.
