Blocked Drains York

As a homeowner in York, it's essential to understand the concept of private drainage and how it affects your property. At Blocked Drains York, we specialize in providing professional drain unblocking and relining services to help you protect your property and the environment.

Private drainage refers to the system of drains and pipes that serve a single property or a small group of properties, rather than the public sewer system. This means that the property owner is responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of the drainage system, including any problems that may arise.

Private drainage systems typically consist of a network of pipes that collect and transport wastewater and sewage from a property to a treatment tank or a connection to the public sewer system. The system may include a septic tank, which treats the wastewater on-site, or a cesspit, which stores the wastewater until it is emptied.

A private drainage system may include:

• Drains and pipes that collect and transport wastewater and sewage from the property
• A septic tank or cesspit for treatment and storage of wastewater
• A soakaway or drainage field for dispersing treated wastewater into the groundwater
• A connection to the public sewer system, if available

As a property owner, you are responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of your private drainage system. This includes ensuring that the system is functioning correctly, addressing any problems that may arise, and taking steps to prevent pollution and environmental damage.
