Working in Burton upon Trent

Burton upon Trent grew around brewing, so it has long streets of Victorian terraces, larger villas in areas such as Stapenhill, and expanding modern estates around Branston and Stretton, as well as a lot of industrial and commercial property.

In Burton upon Trent's terraced streets drains are often shared between houses and run under yards and back alleys, so careful tracing comes first.

For Burton upon Trent (DE13, DE14 and DE15), planning applications are handled by East Staffordshire Borough Council, and highways matters such as scaffold licences, skips on the road and dropped kerbs by Staffordshire County Council. Our yard at Kimberley Business Park is around sixteen miles east of Rugeley via the A513 and A38.

How we work

New drainage is laid to proper falls on a granular bed, with accessible chambers at changes of direction and connections that building control and the sewerage undertaker will accept. Sewer connections in this area are usually made to Severn Trent's network, and we handle the application.

Surface water is the other half of drainage. On drives, patios and yards we use ACO channels, gullies and soakaways sized for the area, so rainwater goes where it should and not against your house.

Drainage in Burton upon Trent: common questions

Are there local ground or drainage considerations in Burton upon Trent?

Burton sits on the Trent and its floodplain, so ground conditions, drainage and levels need careful checking, particularly on lower-lying sites. We check the site and any available records before we price the work.

Can you stop water pooling on my drive or patio?

Usually, yes. ACO channels, gullies or a soakaway can be added to an existing surface, or built in when it is relaid.

How do I know where my drains run?

A CCTV survey with tracing shows the line, depth and condition of the pipes. We can mark them out on site before any digging starts.

Can you fix a blocked or collapsed drain in Burton upon Trent?

Yes. We clear blockages, survey the run where needed, excavate and replace damaged or collapsed sections, then reinstate the surface.

Which areas near Burton upon Trent do you cover?

We cover Burton upon Trent and nearby places including Branston, Stretton, Barton-under-Needwood, Tutbury and Winshill, plus the wider Staffordshire and West Midlands area.
