FAQs
Drainage in Worthing: FAQs
Do you provide drainage across all of Worthing?
Yes, we cover the BN11 and BN12 and BN13 and BN14 postcode areas in full, including Tarring, Broadwater, Durrington, Goring-by-Sea, Findon Valley, Heene.
How do I know if I need a CCTV drain survey?
Recurring blockages, slow-draining fixtures across the property, or unexplained damp near ground level are common signs. A CCTV survey identifies the exact cause and location before any excavation is planned.
Who is responsible for a blocked shared drain?
Shared drains serving more than one property are usually the responsibility of the water company, while private drains serving a single property are the owner's responsibility. We can advise on which applies once the drain run is surveyed.
Are Worthing's seafront buildings protected?
Many of the town's notable Art Deco and Edwardian seafront buildings are listed or within conservation areas, which affects what external changes can be made without consent. We check this for individual properties.
