So they've just ripped up the remaining floor and the cold water pipe is an old lead one.
All the water pipes these days are plastic so we could replace it but the work is apparently £800.
Our water pressure is great already so is it worth it?

We did it when we were messing about downstairs. Not sure it cost us £800 though. Sure it's probably fine, but I didn't like the idea of a lead water main .

As you say, it's probably fine but - pondering spending that money on a mains filtration system instead. Obviously if that lead pipe leaks that would be a serious error of judgement.
