Fully Compliant Pressure Testing & Chlorination
Before a new water main or service can be brought into operation, it must be pressure tested and disinfected to meet strict water industry regulations.
At Kurek, we provide pressure testing and chlorination services across the North East, ensuring every system is fully sealed, hygienically disinfected and ready for approval. From initial testing through to final certification, we manage the entire process to keep your project moving.
One contractor. One process. Fully signed off.
With extensive experience in water infrastructure commissioning, Kurek delivers fully compliant pressure testing and chlorination in line with current industry standards.
We provide a complete end-to-end service, from pressure testing and chlorination through to laboratory sampling and final certification, ensuring your water infrastructure is approved for connection without unnecessary delays.
1. Swabbing
Before testing begins, the pipework is thoroughly cleaned to remove debris and trapped air, helping to ensure effective disinfection and reducing the risk of failed samples.
2. Pressure Testing
We carry out pressure testing to confirm the pipework is fully sealed, leak-free and compliant before the chlorination process begins.
3. Chlorination
A carefully controlled chlorine solution is introduced into the system to eliminate bacteria and ensure the pipework is hygienically clean.
4. Flushing
Following chlorination, the system is flushed to remove chlorinated water and restore normal operating conditions ready for sampling..
5. Sampling
Water samples are collected in accordance with industry standards and submitted to UKAS-accredited laboratories for analysis.
Water Sampling & Laboratory Testing
We coordinate compliant water sampling and laboratory testing through UKAS-accredited laboratories, ensuring every sample meets the requirements of the relevant water authority.
Each sample is collected, handled and tracked correctly through to completion, helping your project achieve approval first time and avoiding unnecessary delays or repeat visits.
Certification & Approval
Every pressure reading, laboratory result and supporting record is clearly documented, helping to achieve a smooth approval process and allowing your connection to proceed without issue.
By managing the entire commissioning process from start to finish, Kurek helps reduce delays, minimise risk and keep your project on schedule.
