Working in Rugeley

Rugeley sits in the Trent Valley on the edge of Cannock Chase, and it is home to our yard at Kimberley Business Park. The town mixes Victorian and Edwardian terraces close to the centre, inter-war and post-war semis around Etching Hill, Pear Tree and Brereton, and the large new neighbourhood rising on the former power station land.

Around Rugeley we see a lot of older clay drains damaged by roots and ground movement, as well as new-build plots that need fresh connections.

Rugeley (WS15) falls under Cannock Chase District Council for planning and Staffordshire County Council for highways matters such as scaffold licences and dropped kerbs. Our yard at Kimberley Business Park is right here in town.

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 Rugeley: common questions

Are there local ground or drainage considerations in Rugeley?

Rugeley's position on the Trent floodplain means ground conditions and drainage need checking carefully, particularly on lower-lying plots near the river and canal. We check the site and any available records before we price the work.

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.

Do you fit land drains?

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

Which areas near Rugeley do you cover?

We cover Rugeley and nearby places including Brereton, Etching Hill, Slitting Mill, Colton and Handsacre, plus the wider Staffordshire and West Midlands area.
