Consumer issues
I share a supply pipe, what am I responsible for? Modern houses have an independent water supply pipe into the property, which is the householder's responsibility. In older properties there may be a shared supply pipe for one or more other houses. Responsibility for the supply pipe is shared between householders. Examples of supply pipe responsibility are shown in the diagram below: Houses B and C have a shared supply pipe and have joint responsibility for maintenance for any part of the pipe that is shared. Houses D, E and F are terraced houses with a shared supply pipe. They share responsibility for maintenance of the pipe.  |
