Wood Green housing, from a drainage engineer's side
Wood Green features a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing alongside larger residential conversions above the commercial high street. The area sees high footfall and density, with drainage systems often bisected by pavements and roadways. Rear access to drains can be restricted by development.

What fails here
Common drainage problems in Wood Green
01
Grease Blockages from Commercial Premises
For properties above or adjacent to shops and restaurants, grease from commercial kitchen extractors and waste frequently migrates into the shared residential drainage, causing severe blockages in the connecting pipes.
02
Pavement-Disruption Repairs
When a collapsed clay drain run extends under a public footpath or roadway, repairs require coordination with the council and reinstatement work. This is a common scenario given the age of the infrastructure.
03
Collapsed Party-Wall Drains
Drainage lines that run along or under party walls between terraces are vulnerable to failure from historical movement. Repairing these often requires careful negotiation with neighbours and precise, minimally invasive techniques.
04
Overflowing Front Gullies
Front patio and driveway gullies on these properties often become overwhelmed with leaf litter and silt, especially where fall is poor, leading to surface water flooding towards front doors during heavy rain.
Three methods, one visit
High-pressure jetting
Blasts grease, silt and root growth from pipe walls without digging.
CCTV survey
A camera on rods or a crawler unit records the pipe condition end to end.
No-dig relining
A resin liner is cured inside the damaged pipe instead of excavating it.
