Thanks
only really planing at the moment
So it would flow just poorly
and not fit for purpose

I have learnt this the expensive way.Iff you only put a 25mm pipe in and in future times you want to take extentions off it ,,if you have low pressure you might strugle to get enough volume ,,better to big now than to small later
60 metres under a road! What are they putting in? A quarry?!Bit concerned after a call today which suggested that AW would need a week to dig 60m under the road. Wonder how many cups of tea will be consumed?
How did you get on with this in end? Curious here!I'd go for the borehole, but ideally would like a mains supply as backup. Overkill perhaps, but wont know until I have all the prices in.

Have you missed a zero off that?
180 quid to connect from their main to a pipe you've laid within a few feet of their main?
Sounds a lot of money, but i spent 10k drilling and didn't get a drop of water, so now going down same route as yourself. Roughly 800m through mixed land, application just sent in so just hope Scottish Water play ball.I sold it and bought a new farm. I'm currently putting in a new 62mm main. 1750m. It's going across farm land to the point of connection. New main connection was not overly dear - large users can now change supplier so they are being friendly. It's steady going but whole lot is going to be circa £22k pipe, digging, pressure testing, chlorinating etc.
Local borehole company didn't bother to ring back. For that it was a bit "hmm might be ok" but no certainty. And cost of pumps, electric and fitting was going to be circa £15k. I'm going to add rainwater harvesting and cleaning for the next step.
