Thank you for your request for a quotation to pressure test, chlorinate and sample your external water pipe work. For us to prepare the quote, we require that you complete the following information.
In order to carry out the pressure test and chlorination we require a potable water source. If this is a metered supply the bill payer’s authority must be obtained before we can use it on your behalf. If there is no useable potable water source on site, you, the customer will need to arrange this with your local water company.
The new pipe work will be pressure tested to ensure it is watertight and a certificate issued to that effect. If the new pipe work does not pass the pressure test, then sampling will not be carried out. The site contact will be notified of the failure and no further work will be completed until the leak has been rectified. This will incur extra costs due to extra site visits/works.
Samples will be taken and analysed at one of our UKAS accredited laboratories. In the event that the water samples fail the testing procedure your pipe work will need to be re-chlorinated and resampled. The cost to carry out any the above will be set out in our quote. A certificate will be issued following analysis and outcome of the sample/samples.
