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

Tower Hill is a quiet residential pocket in the RH12 postcode, sitting about three miles north-west of central Horsham. The housing is a fairly typical West Sussex mix: post-war semis, some detached 1960s and 1970s builds, and pockets of older stock closer to the rural edges. We get called out here regularly for blocked drains and slow-clearing gullies, and the clay-heavy soil means root ingress into older lateral pipes is something we deal with more often than you'd think.

We come in from the Horsham direction, usually dropping off the A264 and working through the quieter residential roads from there. The area sits on ground that doesn't drain naturally all that fast, and during wet winters some gardens and driveways hold surface water longer than they should. A lot of the foul drainage here dates back to the 1960s and 1970s, and those older vitrified clay pipes have had decades to attract tree roots at every joint. That's what keeps us busy on this patch more than anything else.

Most common Tower Hill jobs

• Clearing root-blocked lateral drains on older clay pipe runs
• CCTV surveys before house purchases on 1960s and 1970s properties
• Slow-draining kitchen sinks and ground-floor toilets backing up after heavy rain
• Gully clearance where leaf debris and silt have built up over winter
• Tracing shared sewer runs where neighbouring properties are both affected
