Mayflower Water Treatment Works, Plymouth

24-7 Diamond Drilling and Sawing Services Limited were contacted by Balfour Beatty to metal wire saw cut a live mains water pipe in the Plymouth area.

Arriving on site at 6 a.m in the morning and setting up equipment, waiting for South West Water to isolate the mains water, we began the task of cutting the steel one metre in diameter pipe, it had a backlog of water remaining in the system which of course made this task more hazardous.

We achieved this cutting task within a 11/2 hour time frame, thus enabling the main contractor to carry out its installation of a new isolation valve point. This task was one of a number of similar tasks being planned to be carried out within the next few months around the Plymouth area.
