A Dorridge drainage engineer,
on call 24/7 with a clear price before we start.

Dorridge sits in the B93 postcode, about five miles south of central Solihull, and it's a comfortable commuter village with a strong mix of detached and semi-detached properties spanning the 1930s through to 1990s estates on the fringes. You've also got some older Victorian and Edwardian stock closer to the station. We get called out here fairly regularly for blocked drains, root ingress and collapsed sections, the kind of work that comes with ageing private pipework on plots with mature gardens.

We usually come in along the A4141 or cut through from the Knowle direction depending on where the job is. The roads near the station tend to have older clay drainage that's been patched over the years rather than replaced, and shared sewer arrangements are common on the terraced and semi-detached streets. Out on the larger detached plots you'll find long private runs in poor condition simply because nobody's touched them in decades. Mature oaks and silver birches are everywhere in this village, and root ingress is the single most recurring problem we deal with in Dorridge.

Most common Dorridge jobs
