Guttering & Downpipes Experts Serving Lewes
Blocked or damaged gutters and downpipes send rainwater down walls and into foundations — causing damp, erosion, and drainage overload that's far costlier than the fix. A&B Drainage Solutions provides gutter and downpipe services in Lewes, backed by over 33 years' experience and fully equipped vans on every job. Our line is answered around the clock, and we typically reach Lewes addresses quickly — day or night.
We clear, repair, and replace guttering and downpipes, and trace where downpipes discharge to resolve overloaded gullies and surface-water problems at the same visit. Lewes sits in East Sussex, 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. Listed and period properties in Lewes benefit from our minimally invasive repair methods.

Good to Know Locally
Guttering & Downpipes in Lewes: What to Know
Surface water rebate
If your downpipes discharge to a soakaway rather than the public sewer, you may be able to claim a surface water drainage rebate on your Southern Water bill.
Where rainwater should go
Rainwater should go to a surface water drain or soakaway, not the foul drain. Misconnected downpipes can overload drains and sewers in heavy rain.
Local Drainage Guide
Who's Responsible for Your Drain in Lewes?
Your own drain
Pipes that serve only your property and sit inside your boundary are yours to maintain. Many home insurance policies cover accidental damage to them.
Shared drains & public sewers
Since October 2011, drains shared with neighbours or running beyond your boundary are usually public sewers. In Lewes these belong to Southern Water, so faults on them can be reported to Southern Water free of charge.
Road drains & gullies
East Sussex County Council is responsible for road gullies and surface water on public roads in Lewes.
New drains, soakaways & septic tanks
New drainage work needs Building Regulations approval through Lewes District Council building control or a registered building control approver. Septic tanks and treatment plants must also meet the Environment Agency's general binding rules.
