Meanwhile, residents in Tunbridge Wells were told on Friday they could expect continued disruption to their water supply until Tuesday.
The town’s MP, Mike Martin, told the BBC the water going “on and off” made it “quite hard to plan your life”.
SEW said that, until its network stabilises, customers could expect normal flow in the mornings, but no water in the afternoons and throughout the evenings.
A spokesperson for SEW explained that Storm Goretti had resulted in “outages at a number of water treatment works sites” and widespread “river water quality issues”.
“This is not the level of service we want to provide, but we believe this is the quickest way to return water supplies to normal,” they said.
“We expect the levels to be stable by 13 January.”
