Project

A Victorian terrace, repiped in copper

Lead and steel pipework replaced throughout while the family stayed at home.

Location

Mill Lane, Ashby

Year

2026

Time on site

9 days

Service

Plumbing

Old lead and steel pipes under lifted floorboards

Before

New copper pipework with brass valves on a white wall

After

The house

A three-storey terrace from 1894 with the original lead supply and a patchwork of steel and plastic added over a century.

What we did

We replaced the incoming main and repiped floor by floor, keeping one bathroom working at all times. Every joint was pressure-tested and photographed before the floors went back.

The result

Water pressure at the top floor doubled, and the owners have a photo record of every pipe in the house.
