Professional Water Mains Installation & Renewal
Whether you are developing a new site, extending an existing water mains network, or renewing ageing infrastructure, Sherborne Utilities has the experience, accreditations and equipment to deliver a professional result. We carry out water mains installation and renewal for domestic and commercial clients across Dorset, Somerset, Wiltshire, Hampshire and Devon.
As a Wessex Water approved contractor, we are qualified to install new water mains that connect to or will be adopted by the Wessex Water network. This includes the installation of adoptable water mains for new housing developments, commercial sites and infrastructure projects, as well as private water mains serving multiple properties or buildings.
Where existing water mains have reached the end of their useful life, are subject to recurring failures or are constructed in materials that are no longer acceptable under current standards, we offer water mains renewal services. This involves the systematic replacement of the existing main with modern MDPE or ductile iron pipe as appropriate, managed to minimise disruption to connected properties throughout the works.
We manage the entire process from initial design and specification, through authority approvals and liaison with Wessex Water, to installation, testing, chlorination and final commissioning or adoption. Our experienced project management team ensures works are completed on programme and to specification.
