Drainage in Marlpit Hill, Kent

Greensand and chalk ridges drain fast on the surface but concentrate groundwater lower down, so soakaways and low-lying gullies take the brunt after a downpour.

Marlpit Hill 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.

From the centre of Marlpit Hill out to the edges of TN8, we carry jetting, CCTV and drain rods on every van, so most jobs are solved on the first visit.

Do you cover the whole of TN8?

+

What causes most blocked drains in Marlpit Hill?

+

The most common causes we see locally are wet wipes and sanitary items blocking the main lateral, displaced joints and misalignment caused by ground movement, root ingress at clay pipe joints on tree-lined streets around Marlpit Hill. A CCTV survey tells us which one it is in minutes rather than guessing.

Do you offer emergency drain unblocking in Marlpit Hill at night?

+

We do. Our phone lines are staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, and we treat sewage inside a property or flooding risk as a priority call-out anywhere in Kent.

Can you do CCTV drain surveys for a house purchase in Marlpit Hill?

+

Yes — pre-purchase CCTV drain surveys in Marlpit Hill are one of our most requested jobs. You get a recorded survey, a written report and a clear list of any defects with repair options.

Is my drain my responsibility or the water company's?

+

In Kent, pipework inside your property boundary that only serves your home is usually yours. Shared runs and anything beyond the boundary are typically the water authority's. We'll tell you which is which before any work starts — and never charge you for a job that isn't yours.
