Four Acres is a residential area on the western edge of Cirencester, sitting within the GL7 postcode and about 10 to 15 minutes from our yard depending on traffic. The housing here is mostly post-war and 1970s semi-detached and detached stock, with some later infill development rounding out the streets. It's a settled, owner-occupied kind of neighbourhood, and the drainage calls we get tend to be blocked drains, slow-draining gullies, and the occasional collapsed run where ageing clay pipework has finally given up.
We usually come in off the A429 or cut through from the town centre via the western distributor roads. The housing from the 1960s and 70s means you're dealing with original clay pipe runs in a lot of gardens, often laid with push-fit joints that tree roots find easy going. Front garden planting has matured considerably over the decades, and that shows up in CCTV surveys where you can trace root ingress joint by joint back to a specific tree. Shared sewer connections between pairs of semis are common here, which means one household's blockage quickly becomes the neighbour's problem too.
Most common Four Acres jobs
- Clearing blocked drains caused by root ingress in original clay lateral pipes
- CCTV surveys on older semi-detached properties before sale or after repeated blockages
- Unblocking shared sewer connections where the problem has backed up into both properties
- High-pressure jetting of silted gullies and downpipe connections
- Patch lining short sections of cracked or root-damaged clay pipe without full excavation

Four Acres FAQ
Shared private sewers that were built before 2011 are usually now the responsibility of Severn Trent Water rather than individual homeowners. If the shared section runs between your two properties and connects to the public sewer, it's worth checking with Severn Trent first before you spend any money. We can do a CCTV survey to establish exactly where the blockage or damage is, which makes that conversation with the water company much easier.
