Low pressure in Wembley

We’re really sorry you are experiencing low pressure. We’ve been made aware of damages caused by a third party to one of our mains on High Road which may be causing this.

What we’re doing

Our repair team have stayed on High Road and are continuing to repair the damaged water main. As soon as we know how much longer this will take, we’ll let you know.

We’re really sorry for the disruption. We’re working hard to get your water flowing again soon.

What you can do
