π‘π¦ Leak Investigation, whatβs under your bed? π€―π
Our engineers attended site to investigate an ongoing external water supply issue at a property in Derby. Following a full investigation, two exploratory excavations were carried out one within a makeshift bedroom area and another externally within the garden in an attempt to trace and locate the affected supply line.
Due to the condition and layout of the existing pipework and the way the house is laid out , the exact route of the supply could not be confidently identified during this visit. But we did notice π & nests & droppings, as seen in photos.
Our findings suggest the most practical and long term solution will be to install a full new water supply re route, taking the property off the shared supply and onto its own dedicated feed β
and also minimal destruction is what we want to aim for.
Proposed works will include
π΅ New dedicated water supply line
π΅ New point of entry (POE)
π΅ New internal stop tap installation
π΅ Reliable and future proofed supply to the property
Safe to say this one had a few surprises along the wayβ¦ a manhole access in a makeshift bedroom wasnβt quite what we expected π derby was the gift that kept giving that day β
