Drain Repairs Experts Serving Alton
Collapsed sections, fractured pipes, displaced joints, and root damage all need proper structural repair — patching over the symptoms just means the problem returns. A&B Drainage Solutions provides structural drain repairs in Alton, backed by over 33 years' experience and fully equipped vans on every job. Our line is answered around the clock, and we typically reach Alton addresses quickly — day or night.
We diagnose with HD CCTV first, then repair using the least disruptive effective method — no-dig lining and patching where possible, precise excavation where necessary. Alton sits in Hampshire, where the public sewers are managed by Southern Water — if a problem turns out to be on the public side, we'll tell you honestly and point you in the right direction. Alton's rural surroundings mean plenty of off-mains drainage work alongside standard town call-outs.

Drain Repairs in Alton: 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 Southern Water repairs in Alton. 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 Alton require a street works permit from Hampshire County Council. No-dig relining often avoids that altogether.
