What Is Happening With Your Water Main?
You do not need to know exactly what the problem is. Tell us what you are experiencing and we can investigate the supply.
I Think I Have a Water Leak
We investigate suspected underground water leaks and use specialist detection methods, including tracer gas where suitable.
I Don't Know Where My Water Main Runs
We can investigate unknown water service routes, establish the direction of the main and help locate buried services or stopcocks.
My Water Main Needs Repairing
Once a leaking or damaged section has been identified, we can excavate, expose and carry out the required repair.
I Need a New or Replacement Water Main
We replace old or failed mains and install new private water supply pipes, using moling where the site is suitable.
Finding Underground Water Leaks
Underground supply leaks are not always visible at the surface. Kane & Sons can investigate suspected water loss and use appropriate specialist methods to narrow down and locate the problem.
- Suspected underground supply leaks
- Unexpected meter movement or water usage
- Tracer gas investigation where suitable
- Wet or saturated ground
- Domestic and commercial supplies
Finding Where Your Water Main Runs
Many properties have little or no information showing the route of the incoming water supply. Kane & Sons can investigate the existing system and trace underground water supply routes where conditions allow.
- Tracing unknown water main routes
- Establishing the direction of the supply
- Investigating buried or missing stopcocks
- Understanding existing supply arrangements
- Planning repair or replacement routes
Locate the Problem. Then Repair It.
Kane & Sons does more than locate the leak. Where a localised repair is appropriate, we can excavate the affected area, expose the water main and carry out the required repair.
- Excavation and exposure of leaking pipework
- Localised water main repairs
- Replacement of damaged sections
- Investigation through to repair by one contractor
Trenchless Water Main Moling
Where site and ground conditions permit, moling can be used to install replacement or new water mains while reducing the amount of open trench excavation required.
- New water main installations
- Replacement incoming water mains
- Trenchless moling where suitable
- Conventional excavation where required
- Alternative supply routes where appropriate

Water Main Questions
How do I know if I have an underground water leak?
Possible signs include unexplained meter movement, increased water usage, wet or saturated ground, reduced pressure or visible water appearing where it would not normally be expected.
Can you find where my water main runs?
Yes. We can investigate unknown water service routes and use appropriate tracing methods to help establish the direction of underground supply pipework where conditions allow.
Can you locate a buried or missing stopcock?
We can investigate the incoming water supply arrangement and attempt to locate buried or unidentified stopcocks associated with the private water service.
Do you repair underground water mains?
Yes. Where a localised repair is appropriate, we can excavate the affected area, expose the supply pipe and carry out the required repair.
Can you replace the whole water main?
Yes. Kane & Sons undertakes complete water main replacements and can install a new route where required.
Can you install a completely new water supply?
Yes. We install new private water supply pipes for domestic, commercial and development requirements.
Do you use trenchless moling?
Yes. Where site layout and ground conditions are suitable, moling can reduce the amount of conventional open trench excavation required.
