Our Drainage Services

Aldershot's drainage stock is a direct product of its military history. Large parts of the town, particularly the older terraced streets near North Town and the former military housing around Wellesley, were built during the Victorian era to house the garrison, and much of that original drainage still runs on clay or cast iron pipework more than a century old. That combination of age and dense terraced layout is why cracked joints, root ingress, and recurring blockages show up so often in this part of town, and why we treat a call to a Victorian terrace near Wellington Avenue differently from a call to a modern estate.

The surrounding towns bring their own conditions. Farnham's older Georgian-era buildings around The Borough carry complex, sometimes irregular drainage arrangements that need careful diagnosis rather than a standard fix. Ash and Ash Vale sit close to the Basingstoke Canal and local watercourses, so heavy rainfall can push already-stressed drainage systems past their limit. Guildford's riverside setting on the Wey and its steep, varied terrain create their own drainage pressures that differ street to street. Wherever the callout, our engineers bring CCTV survey cameras, high-pressure jetting equipment, and trenchless pipe relining, so an old Aldershot clay pipe gets fixed for what it actually is rather than a generic blockage.
