Our Experience

Whether it’s preparing technicians for the water industry, pipeline installation and repair, RPZ Valve services or backflow prevention solutions, the team at Cherwell Water Utilities are well versed to take advantage of extensive water industry experience to adapt to the service that you require.

Mick, the founder of Cherwell Water Utilities, began working in the water industry for Thames Water in 1987. In a 30-year stint with them, he spanned roles in water treatment, networks, repair and maintenance. Eventually, Mick moved into strategic projects, including large diameter water mains, reservoir and pumping station construction.

During the latter stage of Mick’s tenure at Thames Water, he moved into a training and development role. With further qualifications obtained in Training Design and Delivery, he was able to offer his knowledge to technicians by carrying out operational and regulatory training.

After Thames Water, Mick desired the fulfilling nature of assisting others in the industry by leading his own business, Cherwell Water Utilities. By providing professional services at an affordable price, CWU’s services use honesty, respect, inclusion, transparency and passion as their key, foundational values.
Cherwell Water Utilities are approved contractors and affiliate engineers with WaterSafe and GasSafe, and have qualifications in Water Regulations and RPZ Valve installation, commissioning and compliance testing.

With services that anchor on professionalism, quality and expertise, Cherwell Water Utilities have grown to be a company that exudes reliable services and training programs for the water industry.
