Local Knowledge

Drainage In Mapperley: What We Know

The city boundary runs through Mapperley. Mapperley Top, Mapperley Plains and Porchester are in Gedling borough, where Nottinghamshire County Council deals with road gullies, while streets in the city's Mapperley ward, towards Mapperley Park, report them to Nottingham City Council.

At a little over 120 metres, Mapperley is the highest part of Nottingham, and its Keuper Marl, now called Mercia Mudstone, once supplied some of the region's largest brickworks. That clay lets water through slowly and can shrink and swell as it wets and dries, which is hard on old rigid clay drains and means soakaways need a proper percolation test.

Ground falls west from Mapperley towards the River Leen, and the combined sewer that starts in the Mapperley area runs down through Sherwood. On 23 July 2013, 19 homes and a business flooded in that catchment around Winchester Street and Haydn Road, Nottingham City Council found.

Who Is Responsible For Drains In Mapperley?

Severn Trent Water owns the public sewers in Mapperley, 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 Nottinghamshire County Council's (0300 500 8080). If you rent, your landlord is normally responsible for the drains.

Still Have Questions About Your Drains?

Our engineers are happy to talk you through the problem, the likely fix and the price before you book — no obligation.

For drains and sewers, Mapperley is Severn Trent Water. Severn Trent looks after the public sewers and any drain you share with neighbours or that runs beyond your boundary — report problems with those on 0800 783 4444 (24 hours). Drains that serve only your property and sit inside your boundary are your responsibility — and that's the work we do.

It depends which side of the city boundary you're on. Mapperley Top, Mapperley Plains and Porchester are in Gedling borough, so report road drains to Nottinghamshire County Council (0300 500 8080). Streets in the city's Mapperley ward, towards Mapperley Park, are Nottingham City Council's. Your council tax bill shows which council you're in. Gullies, channels and manholes inside your own boundary are private, and we can clear those.

No. We never charge a call-out fee, and Mapperley is only about 25 minutes from our Southwell base, so it's one of the quicker places for us to reach. You pay the same prices as everywhere else we cover, agreed before any work starts.

Possibly, but test the ground first. Mapperley sits on Mercia Mudstone, a clay that lets water through slowly, so a soakaway sized by guesswork can fill up and overflow. We dig a trial pit and run a percolation test before recommending a size, or suggest a different option if the ground won't take the water.
