Not defending the water companies, but listening to LBC today, it seems as water usage increases in hot weather the pressure in the pipes increases which causes the leaks, and there's no easy way of predicting where these might happen. Also as the ground dries and shrinks the movement can cause pipes to fracture. If leaks were just being left for weeks on end that clearly would be unacceptable.
Apparently the government has charged the water companies with fixing leaks but their targets are based on the number of fixes rather than allowing the companies to fix a smaller number of higher volume leaks.

The gardens need it I've been informed. The gardens will be under water in a couple of months time. And to all those whinging about the weather, wait till your energy bills drop on the mat in January or February, you will be praying for the beautiful sunshine we have had over the last few weeks.

Who'd have thought it eh? No forward planning, a lack of investment, just cream off the profits. We are absolute mugs in this country.
