How do you mean "uprated" is it a simple thing to do? or do they have
to dig everything up? i dont understand..


Dug up and new pipe installed.


Not necessarily a full destruction of the drive. When my Dad's supply was
replaced. the water company dug 2 holes (one in the pavement around the
stopcock) and used a "mole" for the bit in between to make a hole through
which they shoved the pipe.

OK, still some destruction, but not as much effort to repair as a full
trench.
