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

Bushley's a quiet rural parish sitting just two miles south-west of central Tewkesbury in GL20, a short run down the A38. It's mostly older village stock, farmhouses, detached cottages and a handful of converted agricultural buildings, with very little modern infill. Because properties are spread out and often privately sewered, the drainage jobs we get here tend to be septic tank issues, collapsed private runs, and blocked drains that haven't been looked at properly in years.

We come into Bushley off the A38, dropping down into the village where properties sit on low-lying ground close to the Severn flood plain. That matters for drainage because the water table can be high and private soakaways struggle after prolonged wet weather. A lot of the pipework here is old clayware serving individual properties rather than shared adoptable sewers, and tree roots from mature oaks and ash in the hedgerows are a recurring problem at pipe joints. Privately managed drainage is genuinely the norm out here, which means more responsibility sits with the householder than people sometimes realise.

Most common Bushley jobs

• CCTV surveys on private drain runs to check for root ingress and cracked clay pipes
• Septic tank emptying and inspection where the tank hasn't been serviced in several years
• Blocked drains caused by root penetration at joints in older clayware
• High-pressure jetting to clear slow-draining systems backing up after heavy rainfall
• Soakaway assessment when surface water won't disperse on saturated ground
