Building and Developing

If you live in a terraced property, you may have shared supply. If you are not sure, try looking for the external stop tap which is usually located in the pavement or on the boundary of your property). If there is an external stop tap for every house then you are on single supply. If there is only one external stop tap for a block of houses then you share a supply with your neighbours.

If you're experiencing intermittent poor flow, you could be on a shared supply with your neighbours and may benefit from a separation. If none of the below bullet points are applicable please complete this application form.
