Drainage Advice

The Private Housing team can offer advice and in certain circumstances, assist in resolving drainage issues.

• If your property was built before 1st October 1937, then the local water authority has jurisdiction. You will need to contact Severn Trent on 0800 7834444
• If you rent the property from the Council you should contact our maintenance department 
• If you rent the property from a Housing Association, you should contact the relevant maintenance department.
• If the issue is on a road or path outside your home, then you need to call Leicestershire County Council on 0800 62 62 03
