How can you trace your cold water incoming main?
I know where the water meter is, it is in the verge next to the road. From there how, can I trace its' route without digging a trench to follow its route?

Generally a supply pipe will be directly linked square to the building from street, unless there have been significant alterations since build.
Are there any similarly built properties nearby where you could ask the residents if they are aware of theirs? Where is the internal stop NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-. |

https://www.screwfix.com/p/isolating...E&gclsrc=aw.ds worse is that the incoming supply if that is what we have found has been split into two and there are two of those valves next to each other. Now, I am no professional, but WTF springs to mind. No property similar water meter is more diagonal then square to the building There has been side extensions, be it one or two since build and the kitchen has been moved. I have only seen two houses that looked ok, ruined by their next owners and we own one of them, my daughter owns the other one. At least she has made her one good. macafee2 |

Not sure that you can unless it's on the title deeds.
