Our line is answered around the clock, and we typically reach Dorchester addresses quickly — day or night.

Good to Know Locally
Drain Lining & Repair in Dorchester: What to Know
Who pays for the repair?
Since October 2011, damaged drains shared with neighbours or running beyond your boundary are usually public sewers, which Wessex Water repairs in Dorchester. Pipes serving only your property are yours, and are often covered by home insurance.
Digging in the road or pavement
Repairs that need excavation in a public road or pavement in Dorchester require a street works permit from Dorset Council. No-dig relining often avoids that altogether.

Shared drains & public sewers
