Sewerage Advice

First-Time Rural Sewerage

Rural drainage systems can cause problems that affect more than one household. Our Environment teams can advise home owners on the options available to overcome faulty drainage systems.

We will work together with all interested parties to identify the best way to remedy defective drainage systems.

Where this involves an application to the water company for connection to mains sewerage, we will act as your application co-ordinator. For more information, contact in the first instance our Environmental Protection Section for details on 01386 565015 (between 9am-5pm, Monday-Friday) or email: environmental.health@wychavon.gov.uk.

General Sewerage Advice

We have extensive knowledge of the many systems of sewers within Wychavon and hold (on behalf of Severn Trent) a copy of their Public Sewer Records. These are available to the public to view or mark up their own plans - just call in at the Civic Centre at Pershore during office hours.

To help us help you and speed up the process a grid reference for the required location would be useful but is not essential.

Unfortunately for legal reasons, we cannot provide copies of Sewer Records. You can get copies from Severn Trent, who currently charge a fee for this service or alternatively download Severn Trent's Records Request Form.
