Water leak on Oglander Road

[flocker spotter]

I have noticed that for over a week water has been pouring out of the curbside near number 16 Oglander. Does anyone know if this has been reported to Thames Water? I had assumed someone local to the leak would have alerted the water company, but without any response it looks like it might have been neglected.

I thought the same and I have already reported this twice via the Thames Water site. https://www.thameswater.co.uk/Help-and-Advice/Bursts-and-Leaks/Report-a-Leak-or-Burst-Pipe but nothing yet

Perhaps try twitter to contact them? Most big companies are particular responsive via that route.

I?ve reported too, surprised it?s still leaking after so long

It?s still pouring out today with half the road ripped up around it. It?ll be iced all over the place tomorrow morning.

Yes also reported it when it first appeared. And then again....

Yes I live a few doors up from the leak and have reported it too - I assumed lots of other people has too as it's been going for over 2 weeks now. It's very odd. Maybe it's not considered an urgent enough problem and they haven't got round to it yet. The road is also having roadworks done this week and they will soon be down as far as that leak so presumably they will have to do something about it then.

Don't know if this is relevant, but Thames Water were really overstretched at the time of the previous snow/freeze, and I don't know how they decide their priorities.

I imagine they have another load of leaks now, plus some (as this one?) left over from before.

It would make sense to do it in conjunction with the roadworks though I guess, but who knows. Maybe if somebody phoned they could get more info?
