Water main replacement and moling in Edinburgh
A water main replacement in Edinburgh typically involves isolating the old supply, installing new MDPE pipe, and reconnecting it to the main network.
Many engineers now use moling technology — a trenchless method that allows new pipes to be installed underground with minimal digging.
Moling is ideal if your supply runs beneath driveways, lawns, or patios, reducing reinstatement costs and keeping your property disruption-free.
Water main replacement costs in the UK
The cost of replacing a water main depends on the distance from the boundary to your property, pipe size, and access. Below is a general guide of prices you can expect to pay:
