Just to let you know, our team have been out overnight flushing the water mains in your area, to help to resolve the discolouration to your water supply.
Our team will continue to monitor this through the course of the day to make sure that everyone’s supply returns back to normal.
Please continue to follow the advice on our discoloured water page, if you are still experiencing discoloured water.
We are sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience whilst we try to get your supply back to normal.
We have received a number of calls from customers in the Stockport area, letting us know that their tap water is discoloured.
This has happened because of a disturbance in the water mains in your area. Historical sediments that have built up over time in the water pipe have been disturbed causing discolouration to your water. This normally happens when we have carried out a repair or have replaced a section of water main.
We know it doesn’t look nice but don’t worry, it’s unlikely to be harmful and will settle down again with time. You can help by letting your cold water tap run at a slight trickle until your water runs clear again.
In the meantime we’ll be keeping an eye on this to make sure your tap water returns to normal again as quickly as possible. Please take a look at our discoloured water page for more information.
We're sorry for any inconvenience this may be causing.
