Water
Our experienceYoung Contracting have expertise in all the disciplines required from the traditional ‘pushfit’ methods adopted for ductile iron and pvcU to the most mode automated butt fusion machines used to supply and install pipe systems to carry water and other fluids.
We have successfully installed replacements of existing leaking systems by inserting or hydraulically bursting the old material and dragging new MDPE/HPPE behind it. This method of renewing old supplies reduces disruption caused by open excavations, time and money saved in reinstatement costs. A similar method can be adopted to install new mains using ‘moles’.
Testing
Young Contracting have adopted the only WRC approved method for testing MDPE/HPPE water mains, using data logging equipment and computerised analysis of the expansion to the pipe under test. This service and other logger surveillance applications are offered to others.
Other services
We offer an ‘under pressure’ drilling service, and own apparatus to carry out drillings and tapping for branch services off any material (ductile iron, steel, cast iron, pvcU/ABS, MDPE) of sizes ½” to 12”.
Young Contracting own mains finding equipment and sophisticated ultrasonic leak detection instruments to accurately pinpoint problems and carry out leakage control surveillance.
Young Contracting can also carry out chlorination/sterilisation of mains to BS6700.
