## Serving Gillingham and North Dorset
We provide drainage services to Gillingham and the wider North Dorset area including Shaftesbury, Sturminster Newton, and Marnhull. As one of Dorset's fastest-growing towns, Gillingham presents both new-build drainage requirements and older infrastructure challenges.

Gillingham's recent housing expansion has introduced modern drainage systems alongside the town's existing Victorian and post-war infrastructure. This creates a mix of old and new systems that sometimes interconnect poorly.

The SP8 postcode and surrounding area is part of our regular coverage. We attend callouts across North Dorset multiple times monthly.

Response times to Gillingham are typically within 75 minutes for emergencies, with same-day scheduling for standard appointments.

## Common Drainage Issues in Gillingham
Gillingham sits on Kimmeridge Clay, a heavy clay geology that retains water and provides poor natural drainage. Soakaways are often ineffective in Gillingham without careful design and percolation testing. Surface water management is a persistent challenge.

The town's rapid housing growth has put pressure on drainage infrastructure. New developments connect to existing systems that were not designed for the increased load, sometimes causing capacity issues in older downstream sections.

Properties in Gillingham's Victorian core have drainage systems that have been adapted over more than a century. These modifications were not always carried out to standard, and CCTV surveys regularly reveal cross-connections, incorrect gradients, and undocumented branch connections.

The River Stour and Lodden influence drainage in lower-lying parts of Gillingham. Flood-risk properties require drainage solutions that accommodate periodic high water tables.
