If you’re moving out of the region you can check who your new supplier is using the Water UK website.
When settling into your new home, the last thing you want are unexpected plumbing or drainage problems such as leaking pipes, collapsed drains or blocked toilets.

We know moving house can be stressful, so here are some tips to help you get settled in to your new home.
Your Water
The water in this region is classed as ‘hard to very hard’. This is because the ground contains rocks with a high chalk (calcium carbonate) content. As water moves through these rocks, it dissolves some of the chalk making the water hard. Hard water’s perfectly safe and there's evidence it can even be good for your health.
Check out our drinking water quality pages for tips on keeping your water healthy and use the postcode search to find out the hardness and drinking water quality in your area. It’s useful when setting up your domestic appliances.
