Homebuyer Drain Surveys for Furner's Green (TN22) properties

Furner's Green has the usual English mix: period property on original clay pipework, post-war housing on pitch fibre or early plastic, and newer builds on UPVC that still connect into much older shared runs. Each fails in a different way, so we diagnose before we dig. We factor that into every homebuyer drain surveys job we take in TN22.

Most common drainage problems in Furner's Green

  • Surface water flooding where downpipes discharge into foul drains
  • Silted and overflowing gullies after heavy rain in TN22
