Do I need permission to connect to the public sewerage system?

Yes, it's really important that you let us know if you want to connect to our sewerage system.

We'll need to make sure the local sewer network has sufficient capacity, and that your connection is carried out in the right way to avoid problems, such as blockages or cross connections.

You can find out about the ins and outs, and apply for a connection here.

If you’re experiencing flooding from a road or footpath and there is no evidence of sewage (toilet paper etc.) please report this to your local council, who are responsible for highways drainage flooding.

Please be aware that our phone lines are much busier than normal, take a look at our flooding page for further advice on what to do if you’re affected by flooding.
