Why Replace Lead Pipes?

Many older properties still have lead water supply pipes running between the property boundary and the building. Replacing ageing lead pipework with modern MDPE pipe provides a durable, reliable long-term solution.

  • Reduce potential lead exposure: Lead can enter drinking water from older lead supply pipes.
  • Modernise your water supply: MDPE pipework is widely used for modern underground water services.
  • Reduce the risk of leaks: Older pipes can deteriorate, split or become restricted over time.
  • Improve reliability: New pipework provides a stronger and more dependable water supply connection.
  • Protect your property: Replacing ageing pipework can help prevent unexpected leaks and disruptive repairs.

Our Replacement Process

  1. Initial assessment
    We inspect the property, discuss the existing water supply and identify a suitable route for the replacement pipe.
  2. Liaising with Scottish Water
    Where required, we liaise with Scottish Water regarding the existing supply, proposed replacement works, connection requirements and any inspections or approvals needed.
  3. Route planning
    We plan the work carefully to minimise disruption to driveways, paths, gardens and internal areas.
  4. Excavation
    Access points or trenches are excavated carefully, taking account of existing underground services.
  5. New MDPE pipe installation
    The old lead supply is replaced or bypassed using modern blue MDPE water pipe.
  6. Connection and checks
    The new water supply pipe is connected and checked before the excavation is closed.
  7. Backfilling and reinstatement
    Excavations are backfilled and affected surfaces are reinstated as agreed within your quotation.
