How do I know if I have lead pipes?

You might find lead pipes close to the internal stop tap or even under the sink. If your home was built before the 1970’s, you are more likely to have lead pipes. If this is the case, L&R Water Services cant stress the importance of Bristol lead pipe replacement immediately.
