Are You Experiencing These Water Pressure Problems in Reading?
Low water pressure affects many Reading properties due to varying mains pressure zones, aging infrastructure, and property height. Our expert team diagnoses and resolves these common issues affecting homes and businesses across Berkshire.
How It Works
Weak Water Flow from Taps
Taps producing inadequate flow rates, making daily tasks like washing dishes or filling kettles frustratingly slow.
Poor Shower Performance

No Water on Upper Floors
Complete loss of water pressure to first floor bathrooms, loft conversions, or second floor facilities during peak demand times.
Fluctuating Pressure Throughout Day
Water pressure varying dramatically between morning and evening, with significant drops during peak usage periods in your neighbourhood.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about boosted cold water supply systems in Reading properties
Low water pressure in Reading can result from several factors: varying mains pressure zones across the borough, aging Victorian-era pipework, property height above street level, peak demand periods, and narrow bore supply pipes. Reading's water infrastructure serves diverse property types at different elevations, creating natural pressure variations that often require boosting solutions.
Signs you need a boosting system include: weak flow from taps and showers, no water reaching upper floors during peak times, electric showers that won't operate properly, fluctuating pressure throughout the day, and appliances like washing machines taking excessive time to fill. Our engineers can measure your current pressure and recommend appropriate solutions.
We offer several solutions: single pump systems for basic pressure boosting, twin pump systems for reliability and higher demands, variable speed pumps that adjust automatically to usage, break tank systems for properties with very low mains pressure, and multi-zone systems for larger properties with varying pressure requirements across different areas.
Most domestic booster pump installations don't require planning permission as they're considered permitted development. However, installations must comply with building regulations, water supply regulations, and may require building control notification. Our WaterSafe approved engineers ensure all installations meet regulatory requirements and obtain necessary approvals.
Most installations take 1-2 days depending on system complexity. We'll need to interrupt your water supply for several hours during connection work, typically scheduling this at convenient times. Our team minimises disruption by protecting furnishings, containing mess, and restoring water supply as quickly as possible while ensuring proper testing and commissioning.
Annual servicing is recommended to maintain optimal performance and warranty validity. This includes pressure testing, pump inspection, control calibration, and component cleaning. We provide comprehensive maintenance contracts for Reading customers, ensuring your system operates reliably year-round with priority call-out for any issues.
Modern pump systems are designed for quiet operation with sound levels typically below 40dB when properly installed. We specify appropriate pumps for your property type and install them with vibration dampening and acoustic enclosures where necessary. Proper siting away from bedrooms and party walls minimises any noise impact.
Costs vary based on property requirements, pump specification, and installation complexity. Basic single pump systems start from around £1,200 installed, while comprehensive break tank systems can range up to £3,500. We provide detailed quotations following site surveys, with transparent pricing and no hidden charges for Reading customers.
