Flooded Drains & Manholes for Northampton (NN1) properties

Local subsoil holds water after heavy rain, which puts extra load on gullies, soakaways and any drain run with a sag or a displaced joint. That matters for flooded drains & manholes in Northampton, because the right fix depends entirely on what the ground is doing to the pipe.

Most common drainage problems in Northampton

  • Fat, oil and grease build-up from kitchen waste pipes
  • Blocked soakaways causing standing water in gardens and driveways
  • Manhole overflow and backing-up during heavy use
  • Collapsed or dropped sections in older clay pipework
  • Deformed pitch fibre pipes in 1950s–70s housing
