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

Hartley Wintney sits just outside the GU51 boundary but if you're in the Hook Road corridor heading into Fleet, you'll know the housing mix well: a blend of 1970s and 1980s semis, some older detached stock, and pockets of newer infill development. About three miles from central Fleet, the area generates a steady stream of drainage calls, mostly blocked drains, slow-running gullies, and the occasional collapsed run that's been quietly failing under a back garden for years.

Coming in from the A323 or off the Hook Road, the housing density changes quickly. The older sections have clay pipework that's been underground for fifty-plus years, and tree roots in the joints are a genuine and recurring problem rather than an occasional one. Shared sewer arrangements across adjoining semis catch people out when one neighbour's blockage backs up into the other's inspection chamber. That's the thing about this stretch of Fleet's outer edge: the pipes are old enough to cause trouble but not old enough for anyone to have replaced them yet.

Most common Hareshill jobs

• Clearing root ingress from clay drain runs under rear gardens
• CCTV survey after repeated blockages that clearing alone won't fix
• Shared sewer disputes between semi-detached neighbours traced back to a single collapsed joint
• Unblocking gullies silted up after wet winters
• Inspection chamber repairs where the benching has crumbled
• Tracing slow drainage in 1980s extensions where the pipework was never quite right
