A Chesterton drainage engineer,
on call 24/7 with a clear price before we start.

Chesterton sits just north-east of Cirencester's ring road, roughly a 10-minute drive from the town centre in the GL7 postcode. It's a mixed area, part older residential stock from the mid-twentieth century, part newer infill development, with some light commercial and agricultural land at the fringes. Most of the drainage calls we get here are blocked drains and slow-running waste pipes in properties that haven't had their drainage looked at in years, plus the occasional collapsed lateral on the older plots.

We come in from Cirencester on the A419 and pick up the Chesterton lanes from there. The housing mix means you've got properties sitting on older clay pipework running alongside more recently built homes with plastic drainage, and the two don't always marry up well at the junctions. Tree root intrusion is a regular finding on CCTV surveys, particularly on the more established plots where mature trees sit close to the drainage runs. Shared sewer arrangements catch people out here more than they expect.

Most common Chesterton jobs

• Clearing blockages in clay drain runs that have partially collapsed at joints
• CCTV surveys to trace shared sewer responsibilities between neighbouring properties
• Root cutting and flushing on laterals running beneath mature garden trees
• Unblocking kitchen and bathroom waste stacks in mid-century semi-detached houses
• Drain repairs where clay-to-plastic junctions have failed and let in ground water
