Bristol Drainage Pros › Patchway
From the 1930s Patchway Estate and the bungalows around Patchway Common to the newer homes at Charlton Hayes, Patchway has a wide mix of housing. One call connects you with an independent local drainage engineer.
Call 0117 441 1646Patchway grew in stages. The original estate north of Filton Aerodrome dates from the 1930s, a large bungalow estate near Patchway Common was built in the 1950s and early 1960s, and a further estate followed in the mid-1960s.
Homes from these periods often have older clay drains that can crack or let roots in as they age. Bungalows tend to have long, shallow drain runs across the garden.
Charlton Hayes, built from 2009 onwards, has modern plastic drainage. On newer developments some drains may not yet have been adopted by Wessex Water, so check your home's paperwork or ask the developer or management company who maintains them.
Tell us the problem and your postcode when you call.
Overflowing manholes, blocked toilets, sinks, showers and outside gullies.
High-pressure cleaning to clear grease, silt, scale and debris.
A camera inspection to find the cause of repeat blockages, or before buying a home.
Fixes for cracked, displaced or root-damaged pipes, often without digging.
If the blockage is in a drain or sewer shared with neighbours, or in a pipe that runs outside your property boundary, it is usually not your responsibility. Since 1 October 2011, shared drains and lateral drains outside the property boundary have been the responsibility of the local sewerage company, which in Bristol and South Gloucestershire is Wessex Water. Drains that serve only your property and sit within your boundary are yours. If you are not sure which applies, check with Wessex Water before you pay for work.
Patchway is in the South Gloucestershire Council area.
Not always. Drains on newer estates may still belong to the developer until Wessex Water adopts them. Check your purchase documents or ask the developer before paying for work on a shared drain.
