In this video I’m showing you how I go about replacing an old lead water supply with a brand new MDPE pipe in the UK. If you’re suffering from low water pressure then it’s very likely to be old lead pipes to blame. Whenever we renovate a property one of the first things we do is to upgrade the water supply. It’s really not worth taking the chance with this sort of stuff - lead poisoning can lead to irritability, aggresive behaviour, mood disorders, low IQ and learning difficulties. Obviously always follow the regulations for the area where you live. As per usual, I’m just showing you my approach to a job like this.
Here’s the full 1920’s semi renovation playlist:
