Neighbours along Church Road who were left without running water for over two days said the experience was a "nightmare".
Homes across Sefton were left without water or with low water pressure for two days after a burst main flooded Church Road/Dunnings Bridge Road in Litherland. Locals said that they had to haul buckets of water up the stairs "just to flush the toilet" and some even had to shower in the garden.
People said it was "scary" to realise how reliant there were on fresh water coming into the home. Noticing how they could not carry out simple tasks including washing the dishes or brushing their teeth.
