Who is responsible for your drain repair?
A broken drain is a challenge that needs fixing no matter what, but who is responsible for the repair? This depends on the type of drainage that you have and where it’s situated.
Sewers
Sewers are essential systems that receive and process wastewater. In general, sewer systems are publicly owned, making the local water authority responsible for their maintenance. However, there are some instances where sewers are not connected to public networks. Instead, alternative systems like cesspools, septic tanks, or treatment plants are used to handle waste. In these cases, it becomes the responsibility of the property owner to ensure proper upkeep of these systems.
Private Drains
As a property owner, it is your responsibility to maintain all drains on your property. This includes not only the drains specifically designed for wastewater from buildings but also all associated components such as gutters and pipes. Any drainage system extending beyond the boundaries of your premises, up to the point where your drains connect to the sewer network, is referred to as a “lateral drain” and is subject to the management of your water authorities.
In the case of faults or blockages with a private drain, it is the responsibility of the property owner to handle the issue themselves. Often, this will necessitate the assistance of a professional drainage company. In certain instances, larger estates may have their own sewage works, and in such cases, the owners would be held accountable for their maintenance. If you are unsure about the specifics, the property deeds typically contain the relevant information about the property’s drainage system.
If in doubt, free to ask our advice. We not only have experience in drainage work but are practised in the legislation and paperwork that goes with it.
