We would like to thank our customers for their patience. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, we could not complete the repair in Plymouth, PL6 6 as planned. We will continue to keep you updated regarding any future interruptions. We apologise for any inconvenience caused during this time.

If you notice discolouration, simply run your kitchen tap for up to an hour to help it clear. The brown or yellow appearance is caused by the disturbance of natural sediments that can build up over time within the main. These are generally associated with metals such as iron and manganese and whilst not harmful, we fully understand that you may not want to drink the water due to the discolouration.
