Tunbridge Wells MP Mike Martin, who was also without water, called South East Water “utterly useless”.
“Their communication has been appalling,” he said. “It has been an absolute disaster.”
GP surgeries and civic buildings have been closed, while restaurants and hotels have lost thousands of pounds, he continued.
The Liberal Democrat MP called on SEW chief executive David Hinton to stand down.
“He earns half a million pounds a year,” he said.
“This has happened before. He promised to the public and me in private that lessons had been learned.
“Those claims are totally false,” Martin told the BBC.
