Hello the answer is if the drain is on your property then you are responsible.Unless it is shared with other houses.

Ray · Answer

This depends where the sewer is located. If it’s under your property it’s you. If it’s under their property it will be either them or the company that operates the waste water network

Jordan · Answer

This will depend who owns the drain if it’s communal meaning mixing with other house holds it will be tge councils but if pe aye and only you use the system it will be down to you thanks jk drainage ltd

Daniel · Answer

This will depend on where the problem is and what year your house is.

Russell · Answer

This depends on were the sewer is if it's on your property.  It could depend on weather your head of the run ie the first drain on the system. Or weather there are more properties involved. So it's a local authority drain if there's more than one property involved.

Robert · Answer

All depends where the sewer is damaged and how councils will not come onto private property to do any repairs without charging the land owner unless they have broke it themselves while doing other work

Pete · Answer

Hi if it is single serving and on your property and from your house , it’s your responsibility but if it’s a shared sewer no matter where it is , ie taking your waste and neighbourhoods waste , it’s the water boards responsibility

Nicholas · Answer

Afternoon, it depends on which side of the property is passing a problem. if its in your property the liability lies with yourself, if its a common area, then council.
