Hosepipe Ban

Update - 2nd August 2018

The proposed introduction of the hosepipe ban in the North West of England has been cancelled by United Utilities

Update - 18th July 2018

With the long draught and high temperatures across the UK this summer, United Utilities will introduce a hosepipe in the North West from 5th August next month. Although this means you will no longer be able to wash your car using a hosepipe or fill a swimming pool, you will still be able to water a newly laid lawn.

With a 'Discretionary Universal Exemption' in place allowing for the 'Watering of newly laid turf using a hosepipe for the first 28 days' you can continue with your plans and order a new lawn in the confidence.
