Castle Bromwich sits in the B37 postcode, about three miles north of central Solihull and a straightforward run up the A452. It's a mixed area, with a solid core of 1960s and 1970s council-built semis alongside newer private estates that went up through the 1990s and 2000s. Drainage calls here tend to be blocked drains on those older semis, CCTV surveys on houses changing hands, and the occasional collapsed lateral on the newer builds where ground movement has caught up with the plastic pipework.
We come in on the A452 Chester Road, which cuts straight through the area. The older housing stock sits on clay-heavy ground, and that combination of clay soil and ageing vitrified clay pipes means root ingress is a recurring problem, particularly where garden trees have had decades to find the joints. The newer estates closer to the retail and leisure corridors have shallower drainage runs that can trap grease and silt faster than you'd expect. Shared sewer arrangements on the older streets are common, so one blocked drain often turns out to be a neighbour's problem too.

Castle Bromwich FAQ
It's a common situation on the older streets in Castle Bromwich. We run a CCTV survey to locate exactly where the blockage or defect is sitting, which tells you clearly whether it's on your lateral, your neighbour's, or on the shared section. Once you've got the footage you've got something concrete to work from, whether that's splitting the cost or going back to your respective insurers.
