A South Cerney drainage engineer,
on call 24/7 with a clear price before we start.
Local Cirencester drainage engineers covering South Cerney. Blocked drains, high-pressure jetting, CCTV surveys and drain repairs, with a clear price agreed before we lift a cover.
South Cerney is the biggest of the villages south of Cirencester, about ten minutes from our base via the A419, and it splits neatly in two: the old Cotswold stone core around the church, and the lakeside plots and holiday lets of the Cotswold Water Park on its doorstep. Out here the work leans properly rural. Septic tanks, treatment plants and soakaways make up as much of our GL7 diary as blocked drains do, with emergency plumbing for holiday lets when a pipe lets go mid-changeover.
The gravel pits that became the Water Park left this corner of the Cotswolds with a genuinely high water table, and it shows. A soakaway that behaves all summer can drown in January, and a septic tank sitting in saturated ground will tell you about it fast. We come in off the A419 onto the Spine Road, so the lakeside end is no slower to reach than the village core. Our honest advice: if your system's near the lakes, have it checked before winter, not during it.
Most common South Cerney jobs
- Septic tank trouble on lakeside plots, always worst in a wet winter
- Soakaways that stop draining when the water table comes up
- Blocked drains in the older stone cottages around the village core
- Burst pipes and frozen pipework in holiday lets between bookings
- Treatment plant alarms, tripped pumps, that sort of thing
- CCTV surveys before buying a house that's off mains drainage

South Cerney FAQ
Around South Cerney, sadly, yes. The old gravel workings mean the water table sits high for much of the year, and a soakaway can't discharge into ground that's already full of water. Sometimes the fix is the tank itself, a worn baffle or an overdue empty, and sometimes the soakaway really does need rebuilding or moving. We'll test the system properly and tell you which it is before anything gets dug, and remedial work we do carries our 20-year guarantee.
