(cut from plumbing forum)
Hello,
I'm a bit confused about the regulations for the above. I was under the impression I could lay the water service myself, within my boundary, provided the work was inspected and signed off by buildings inspector. Taking the pipe up to my boundary, I can then appoint an approved self-lay contractor to take the pipe up to the mains; and the water company to then connect to the mains. Do I understand it correctly? Water company website seems to imply I need to use self lay company for the entire run... thanks.
