the only solution is to replace the water main.

The water board will connect you up for free, but you'll need to lay a pipe
in a 1m deep trench from the property to the pavement and it needs to be
inspected by the water board prior to backfilling.
The pipe is quite cheap

I think the pipe to the property is ok, it looks like it's plastic and
apparently the road was dug up to fit a new main the other year, so I
guess this coming from further "downstream".
