Water Mains Services in Brighton

We provide a range of services, including leak location, pipe repairs, full water pipe replacement, and new connections in Brighton, Lewes, Hassocks, and other local towns.

Work is tailored to the age and condition of your pipes, with a focus on minimal disruption. We use up-to-date surveying technology to assess and repair.

Hidden water main leaks aren’t always obvious. We use acoustic listening devices and electronic locators to trace leaks beneath concrete, tarmac, or soil with minimal digging.

CCTV surveys often spot issues in hard-to-access areas, reducing guesswork and helping plan the best repair or replacement.

Some older streets in Worthing, Lancing, and Littlehampton share water supply pipes between several houses. Upgrading to individual connections can improve flow and stop shared leaks.

We separate supply pipes where possible, giving each property a direct, reliable line—ideal for landlords, managing agents, or groups of neighbours.

Your water main supplies your property with clean water and connects to the public supply under the street. A fault here can cause water pressure drops, damp patches or sinkholes.

Ignoring small leaks can bring higher bills and bigger repair needs. Early attention prevents wasted water and keeps homes, flats, and commercial premises running smoothly.

Visible leaks, loss of pressure, or discoloured water often mean a water main is damaged or aging. Our team can pinpoint and repair leaks or, if needed, replace full pipe runs beneath gardens or driveways.

We handle lead pipe replacement and upgrades to modern materials, keeping your water supply reliable and up to regulations.

For new builds or extensions across Brighton, Hove, Falmer, and Portslade, we install new supply pipes to current standards. Our engineers lay pipework in line with local authority requirements.

We ensure a clean, secure connection between your property and the main public supply, whether for houses, shops, flats, or small industrial units.

Sudden water main bursts or major leaks can flood cellars, pavements, or gardens fast. Brighton Drains offers 24/7 emergency response 365 days a year, with a 1-hour target for arrivals in Brighton, Newhaven, Rottingdean, and surrounding areas.

No call-out charge and work by fully insured, certified engineers. All repairs come with a written guarantee.
