Drainage Experts Covering Brighton
Brighton is the focal point of our East Sussex coverage, served for commercial contracts, CCTV surveys, and planned drainage projects, with domestic work where scheduling allows.
The city's dense Victorian terraces, busy hospitality sector, and ageing sewer connections bring constant drainage demand — from fat-related blockages in restaurant quarters to root-damaged runs in the suburbs.
Brighton's hospitality quarter makes commercial jetting and planned maintenance a large part of our work here.

Local Drainage Guide
Who's Responsible for Your Drain in Brighton?
Your own drain
Pipes that serve only your property and sit inside your boundary are yours to maintain. Many home insurance policies cover accidental damage to them.
Shared drains & public sewers
Since October 2011, drains shared with neighbours or running beyond your boundary are usually public sewers. In Brighton these belong to Southern Water, so faults on them can be reported to Southern Water free of charge.
Road drains & gullies
Brighton & Hove City Council is responsible for road gullies and surface water on public roads in Brighton.
New drains, soakaways & septic tanks
New drainage work needs Building Regulations approval through Brighton & Hove City Council building control or a registered building control approver. Septic tanks and treatment plants must also meet the Environment Agency's general binding rules.
Not sure which applies? A CCTV drain survey shows exactly where your pipes end and the public sewer begins.Local authority details checked October 2026.
