Bedworth is a former coal mining town sitting on clay with coal measures, and the history of mining beneath the town is directly relevant to the drainage problems we encounter in CV12. Subsidence from historic mine workings has affected ground stability in parts of Bedworth over many decades. When the ground beneath a drainage pipe settles unevenly, the pipe loses its gradient, debris accumulates where water no longer flows fast enough to carry it, and joint gaps open. Our drainage engineers in Bedworth use CCTV survey to identify whether a blockage is a standard accumulation or the result of pipe movement caused by subsidence.

Answers from our local engineers who work across Bedworth every day.
Yes. Ground settlement from historic coal mine workings beneath Bedworth can cause drainage pipes to lose gradient or crack at joints. CCTV survey is the best way to identify whether a blockage is a standard accumulation or a subsidence-related pipe movement issue.
The drainage beneath the Victorian and Edwardian streets in the older parts of Bedworth is original clay pipe, typically over 100 years old. Much of it has never been surveyed. CCTV is the only reliable way to assess its current condition.
We can reach most Bedworth addresses in around 55 minutes. CV12 town centre properties are typically the fastest. Outlying areas may take a few minutes longer.
No. There is no call-out fee. We agree a fixed price on site before any work starts.
