Working in Penkridge

Penkridge is a small market town on the A449 between Stafford and Cannock, close to the M6. It has a conservation area around St Michael's church, older terraces near the River Penk and plenty of modern housing.

In Penkridge we deal with both period properties on old drainage and new homes on modern systems that need extending.

For Penkridge (ST19), planning applications are handled by South Staffordshire District 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 about thirteen miles from Rugeley across the Chase.

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 Penkridge: common questions

Are there local ground or drainage considerations in Penkridge?

Penkridge sits beside the River Penk, so drainage and flood-aware levels matter on lower-lying plots. We check the site and any available records before we price the work.

Do you install soakaways?

Yes. We design and install soakaways and surface water drainage, with percolation testing where Building Regulations or the site require it.

Can you lay drainage for my extension?

Yes. Diverting or extending drains under or around a new extension is a normal part of our groundworks, including any building-over agreement needed.

Do I need permission for a new sewer connection in Penkridge?

Yes. New connections to the public sewer need approval from the sewerage undertaker, usually Severn Trent here. We prepare and submit the application as part of the job.

Which areas near Penkridge do you cover?

We cover Penkridge and nearby places including Acton Trussell, Dunston, Gailey, Wheaton Aston and Brewood, plus the wider Staffordshire and West Midlands area.
