The National Drainage Company provides drain unblocking and drainage services across Coventry, covering the CV postcodes — Earlsdon, Stoke, Foleshill, Tile Hill and the city centre. Pre-agreed prices, with jetting, CCTV and no-dig repairs.
Coventry's drainage tells the story of its history. The city centre was heavily rebuilt after wartime bombing, so it mixes post-war drainage with surviving Victorian terraces in Earlsdon, Stoke and Chapelfields, and inter-war and post-war estates across Tile Hill, Canley and Radford. The older terraces — many now student and rental housing near the two universities — run on shared clay drains prone to fat, wipe and root blockages, and the culverted River Sherbourne beneath the centre adds surface-water pressure. In Coventry, the public sewers are the responsibility of Severn Trent Water.
Older terraces run on clay pipework that tree roots find and split at the joints.
Kitchens and food businesses keep drains under constant FOG pressure.
Converted flats share soil stacks, so one wipe can back up several homes.
Older surface drains and gullies silt up and struggle in heavy rain.
"Fast, tidy and did exactly what they said. Couldn't fault them."
"Showed me the problem on camera and sorted it properly. No hard sell."
"Reliable and professional — one call and it was handled."
