Local knowledge

Private drainage around Boroughbridge

Properties close to the Ure and its tributaries need particular care with where treated water goes. A septic tank must not discharge to a watercourse, so riverside homes with older systems often need a treatment plant or a new drainage field.

We cover Aldborough, Langthorpe, Kirby Hill, Roecliffe and Milby and the countryside around them. Every job starts with an assessment of the whole system and, where needed, a percolation test.
