Local Knowledge
Drainage In Ilkeston: What We Know
Storm Babet flooded 53 homes and 14 other properties on and around Wentworth Street when the River Erewash rose, according to Derbyshire County Council's investigation.
Ilkeston is in Derbyshire, so Derbyshire County Council — not Nottinghamshire — looks after its road gullies, while Severn Trent runs the sewers on both sides of the Erewash.
Who Is Responsible For Drains In Ilkeston?
Severn Trent Water owns the public sewers in Ilkeston, plus any drain you share with neighbours or that runs beyond your boundary. Report a problem with those on 0800 783 4444 (24 hours) or online.
Drains that serve only your property and sit inside your boundary are your responsibility — that's the work we do. Road gullies are Derbyshire County Council's. If you rent, your landlord is normally responsible for the drains.
