External Outside stopcock

[trigger123]

Who would be responsable for the external stop tap not working , it is located outside but within the customers boundary, not sure if its the home owner or the Waterboard? thanks

The customer is responsible for any thing within there boundary. If it is just a stopcock replacement it would not cost a lot to replace it. Or you could turn the water on and off at the water meter.If you can't do it your self You can get your local water board to turn it off in the same day it's about £50 ish . But if you give them a few days notice it would be free. Good luck.

not entirely true!

If it's the water undertakings stop tap they are responsible for it wherever it is located.

If it is the water undertakings tap then of course it's there responsibility. but from what i read it was there tap not the water boards as they said stop tap not water meter tap or water boards tap.

probably just what they call it. most likely still water undertakers toby.
