Temporary Water Supply Solutions in Essex
Temporary Water Solutions (TWS) provides fast, fully compliant temporary water supply services across Essex. We support construction sites, industrial facilities, events and emergency response projects, ensuring your site has a reliable water supply when it matters most.
Our team operates throughout Chelmsford, Basildon, Southend-on-Sea, Harlow, Brentwood, Colchester and Saffron Walden, delivering responsive water logistics tailored to Essex’s busy commercial and infrastructure landscape.
Reliable Temporary Water Logistics Across Essex
Essex is home to major transport corridors, dense commercial developments and fast-moving construction projects. Delays to water supply can quickly impact programmes and costs. TWS is structured to respond faster than large utility-tied suppliers, putting commercial sites first.
We operate a major storage hub in Mistley alongside a dedicated tanker fleet based in Colchester. This strategic positioning allows us to reach any part of Essex within hours, providing rapid deployment of tankers, bowsers and static tanks.
Our Temporary Water Equipment for Essex Sites
Reliability starts with the right equipment. All assets supplied by TWS meet strict UK water quality and safety standards.
WRAS-Approved Static Water Tanks
We supply Enduramaxx static water tanks that are fully WRAS-approved and manufactured to Regulation 31 standards. These tanks provide safe, wholesome water for site welfare facilities, offices and temporary accommodation.
Stainless Steel Water Tanker Fleet
Our bulk water deliveries are handled by a dedicated fleet of stainless steel tankers. All units are WRAS and Regulation 31 approved and used exclusively for wholesome water, eliminating any risk of cross-contamination.
Mobile Water Bowsers
For flexible and mobile sites, we hire 2,000-litre road-towable water bowsers from Western Trailers and Trailer Engineering. These bowsers are proven to perform reliably on construction sites and uneven ground.
Pumping and Distribution Solutions
Each bowser is fitted with a high-performance Honda petrol-powered pump for efficient water transfer. For indoor, food-grade or enclosed environments, we also provide quiet, fume-free electric pumps from Ebara and Grundfos.

Case Study: Emergency Temporary Water Supply in Chelmsford, Essex
The Challenge
A housing development in Chelmsford experienced a sudden shutdown after a burst mains water pipe. The developer’s contracted supplier was committed to utility repair works and could not provide assistance for at least 48 hours.
Without an alternative water source, the site faced immediate disruption to welfare facilities and construction schedules. An urgent temporary water supply was required to keep the project operational.
Our Solution
Temporary Water Solutions (TWS) mobilised resources from our Colchester-based tanker fleet. Within three hours, a WRAS-approved stainless steel water tanker arrived on site alongside two 10,000-litre Enduramaxx static water tanks.
The system provided a continuous supply of wholesome water, allowing welfare facilities to remain operational while permanent repairs were completed.
The Result
The site continued operating without interruption, avoiding costly delays and programme overruns. The developer completed the project on schedule, demonstrating TWS’s ability to deliver rapid emergency water solutions across Essex.
