Main Sewer Connections

Picking the right team for your drainage needs is a big deal for your property's health and safety. We're here to give you a service that's not just effective, but also responsible and reliable – someone you can genuinely trust.

A blocked drain can quickly become a major headache, bringing unpleasant smells, slow drainage, and even potential flooding. Using advanced high-pressure water jetting equipment, we can blast away any blockage quickly and efficiently, getting your system flowing perfectly again.
What We Do: Our powerful jetting technology cuts through grease, scale, tree roots, and other debris to clear pipes of all sizes. We sort out everything from blocked toilets and sinks to more serious issues like collapsed main sewer lines.
Services Include: High-Pressure Drain Jetting, Blocked Sink & Toilet Unblocking, Collapsed Drain Clearing, Sewer Cleaning, Emergency Call-Outs, and Regular Maintenance Contracts.

You typically need a new sewer connection if you're building a new property, extending an existing one significantly, or if your current off-mains drainage system (like a septic tank) needs to be replaced with a connection to the public sewer network. It's all about making sure your wastewater drains away safely and legally.

As a property owner or developer, it's usually your responsibility to apply for and arrange a connection to the main public sewer system. This involves contacting your local water and sewerage company and following their specific application process.

The process usually starts with an application to your local water authority, which outlines your plans. Once approved, it moves on to planning the excavation and laying of new pipework to link your property's drainage to the public sewer network. This can include anything from digging trenches to connecting to the main lines in the road. An inspection by the water company is then often needed to sign off the new connection.

Absolutely. You must apply to your local water and sewerage company (for example, Anglian Water or Thames Water) for permission. They need to approve your plans to ensure the new connection won't negatively affect the existing public sewer network and that it complies with all regulations.

We can take the stress out of the entire sewer connection process for you. From helping with the initial application and liaising with the water authority to undertaking all the necessary groundworks, excavation, and making the actual connection, we manage it all. Our team makes sure your new drainage system is safely and professionally connected to the public wastewater system.

When connecting to the public sewer, our aim is to minimise disruption to the surrounding environment. This involves careful planning of excavation work, responsible disposal of materials, and making sure the new connection fully complies with all environmental regulations to prevent pollution. Connecting to the public system is often a more environmentally sound option than older, less efficient private drainage systems.
