Working in Burntwood

Burntwood grew quickly from the 1960s onward, so most homes are post-war and modern semis and detached houses around Chase Terrace, Chasetown and Boney Hay, with Chasewater Country Park on the western edge of town.

Many Burntwood estates have clay pipework now fifty to ninety years old, where cracked joints and root ingress cause recurring blockages.

For Burntwood (WS7), planning applications are handled by Lichfield 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 around nine miles from our yard.

How we work

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.

We like to see a drain before we dig it up. A CCTV survey shows the line, depth and condition of the pipe, so we can recommend a targeted repair or a new run rather than guessing.

Drainage in Burntwood: common questions

Are there local ground or drainage considerations in Burntwood?

Burntwood's estates have plenty of room for driveway widening and extensions, and the area's mining history means old workings are worth checking on some plots. We check the site and any available records before we price the work.

Do you fit land drains?

Yes, including perforated land drains behind retaining walls and in waterlogged lawns.

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.

Which areas near Burntwood do you cover?

We cover Burntwood and nearby places including Chase Terrace, Chasetown, Boney Hay, Hammerwich and Gentleshaw, plus the wider Staffordshire and West Midlands area.
