I have a water leak on my property

It is the responsibility of the owner to repair any leaks that occur on private property. It is the responsibility of Irish Water to repair leaks that occur outside the boundary. For further information see Who is responsible for the pipework coming into my property?

Leaks on private property can result in a significant loss of water and as a result may lead to poor pressure.

See Section 54 and 56 of the Water Services Act, 2007 and the Dublin City Council Water Byelaws for further information on responsibilities and penalties.

If you notice a leak, whether on private or public property, please contact us at the details below.
