Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about pipe installation, pipe replacement, pipe repairs, pipe relining, drain relining, drain unblocking, blocked drain, CCTV drain survey in the UK public sector.

  • What counts as a pipe tender?

    Pipe tenders cover installing new pipe runs, replacing worn or damaged sections, relining drains and sewers without digging them up, and reactive repairs to blocked or burst pipes. Most notices come from water utilities, housing landlords, hospitals and councils maintaining underground and building pipework rather than manufacturers of pipe itself.

  • Who buys pipe repair and installation contracts?

    Water companies, housing associations, NHS trusts and local councils are the main buyers. They tend to procure this work as multi-year drainage or reactive maintenance frameworks covering CCTV surveys, relining and emergency callouts, rather than commissioning single pipe jobs one at a time.

  • What CPV codes cover pipe work?

    The cluster maps most often to 45232452 (Drainage works), 45232410 (Sewerage work) and 45111240 (Ground-drainage work), alongside pipeline-specific codes for water main installation and replacement.

  • Is pipe relining the same as pipe replacement?

    No. Relining inserts a new lining inside an existing pipe or drain without digging it up, the standard no-dig approach for sewers and drains. Replacement means excavating and installing an entirely new pipe run, usually reserved for badly damaged, undersized or end-of-life water mains.

  • How do I find pipe tenders before they are published?

    Search 2,198 live tenders across the public and private portals a buyer might use, or move earlier by reading a buyer's strategy documents and budget papers for signs of upcoming drainage or pipe work. Stotles pulls notices from 100+ portals into one place, so you are not checking each one by hand.
