Temporary Water Supply Solutions in Kent
Temporary Water Solutions (TWS) provides fast, flexible and fully compliant temporary water supply services across Kent. We support construction projects, infrastructure works, geotechnical investigations, healthcare sites, events and emergency requirements, delivering reliable water solutions even on restricted or short-notice sites.
Our team operates throughout Ashford, Dartford, Maidstone, Canterbury, Dover, Folkestone, Tunbridge Wells and surrounding areas, providing responsive water logistics tailored to Kent’s transport links, ports and mixed urban–rural environments.
Reliable Temporary Water Logistics Across Kent
Kent presents a wide range of temporary water challenges. From major infrastructure works and port activity to restricted-access urban sites and live healthcare environments, water supply solutions must be carefully planned and precisely delivered.
TWS is exceptionally well positioned to support Kent-based projects through a combination of local yards, specialist vehicles and regional logistics partners.
Kent is supported by:
- A dedicated TWS yard in Dartford, holding a large stock of stand‑alone 1,000‑litre and 2,000‑litre water storage tanks
- Self load/offload vehicles based at Dartford, allowing rapid deployment and collection of tanks without the need for lifting equipment on site
- A logistics and equipment base in Pluckley, Kent, housing additional water bowsers, static storage tanks and TWS water technicians
- Regional logistics partners who haul TWS tanker trailers and operate their own water tankers for bulk water supply
- Flexible deployment options, including 4x4 vehicles and road‑towable bowsers for sites where tanker access is not possible
This layered structure allows TWS to respond quickly, scale systems efficiently and support both planned works and short‑notice requirements across Kent.
Our Temporary Water Equipment for Kent Sites
Every temporary water system we supply is selected to match site access, duration and technical requirements.
Stand‑Alone Water Storage Tanks
We supply stand‑alone 1,000‑litre and 2,000‑litre WRAS‑approved water storage tanks, ideal for welfare facilities, small compounds and short‑duration projects. These units can be deployed quickly using our self load/offload vehicles, minimising disruption on site.
Road‑Towable Water Bowsers
For sites requiring mobility, we provide 2,000‑litre road‑towable water bowsers from Western Trailers and Trailer Engineering. These units are ideal for urban sites, NHS environments and investigative works where tanker access is limited.
Each bowser is fitted with a reliable Honda petrol‑powered pump to deliver consistent flow and pressure.
Stainless Steel Water Tanker Fleet
Where access allows, our stainless steel tanker fleet provides Regulation 31–approved bulk water deliveries across Kent and the wider South East.

Case Study: Temporary Water Supply for Geotechnical Testing at an NHS Site in Ashford, Kent
The Challenge
A geotechnical engineering contractor was appointed to carry out site investigations at an NHS facility in Ashford. The works required multiple trial pits to be filled repeatedly with water to meet the requirements of BRE 365.
Due to the sensitive nature of the site and space constraints, there was no room to accommodate a water tanker. The project required a flexible, mobile water supply solution that could operate safely within an active healthcare environment.
Our Solution
Temporary Water Solutions (TWS) supplied multiple 2,000‑litre water bowser loads over a two‑day period. A 4×4 vehicle and road‑towable bowser were used to access the site safely and efficiently.
Water was delivered to four trial pits, each filled multiple times to meet testing requirements. The approach allowed precise control of volumes while working within the strict access and safety constraints of the NHS site.
The Result
The geotechnical works were completed successfully and in full compliance with BRE 365 requirements. The flexible bowser‑based solution avoided disruption to hospital operations and demonstrated TWS’s ability to support technical investigations on constrained and sensitive sites across Kent.
