Our very own pavement closure

Well at least for the exorbitant rates charged by Thames Water to provide new water connections to the 5 flats in the building we got our very own pavement closure!

Works are now finally complete in terms of linking up new water mains to each flat, but the contractor still needs to finish up work inside the common parts. Despite now having an individual designated line of pipework direct to each flat, the water pressure unfortunately remains largely the same as I had expected (hence my vote against the works in the first place!). The cold water pressure is slightly stronger in fairness, but the hot water is the same because there isnt a hot water storage tank, but an instant hot water heater which can only heat water so fast. Ah well... at least I know that the next chunk of money I spend on the flat will have a more noticeable and satisfying impact when I eventually get the kitchen countertop sorted out!
