Local Knowledge
Drainage In Bilsthorpe: What We Know
Storm Babet flooded 23 homes in Bilsthorpe on 20 October 2023. According to Nottinghamshire County Council, 21 were on Mickledale Lane and Mickledale Close, where Rainworth Water burst its banks, and two were on Kirklington Road, where the road drains were overwhelmed and water pooled at a low spot.
The Stanton Ironworks Company began sinking Bilsthorpe Colliery in 1925, and the first colliery housing was laid out along Eakring Road towards The Crescent. More homes were built from the 1950s, including prefabricated Cornish Type 1 houses. The colliery closed in 1997, so a coal mining check is worth doing before major groundworks, and the older clay drains are prone to root ingress.
Who Is Responsible For Drains In Bilsthorpe?
Severn Trent Water owns the public sewers in Bilsthorpe, plus any drain you share with neighbours or that runs beyond your boundary. Report a problem with those on 0800 783 4444 (24 hours) or online.
Drains that serve only your property and sit inside your boundary are your responsibility — that's the work we do. Road gullies are Nottinghamshire County Council's (0300 500 8080). If you rent, your landlord is normally responsible for the drains.

Still Have Questions About Your Drains?
Our engineers are happy to talk you through the problem, the likely fix and the price before you book, with no obligation.
For drains and sewers, Bilsthorpe is Severn Trent Water. Severn Trent looks after the public sewers and any drain you share with neighbours or that runs beyond your boundary — report problems with those on 0800 783 4444 (24 hours). Drains that serve only your property and sit inside your boundary are your responsibility — and that's the work we do.
Road gullies belong to the highway authority, which in Bilsthorpe is Nottinghamshire County Council. Report a blocked or flooding road drain on the council's website or on 0300 500 8080. Gullies, channels and manholes inside your own boundary are private, and we can clear those for you.
No. We never charge a call-out fee, and Bilsthorpe is only about 15 minutes from our Southwell base, so it's one of the quicker places for us to reach. You pay the same prices as everywhere else we cover, agreed before any work starts.
It's worth it. Floodwater often leaves silt and debris in drains and gullies. We can jet your private drains and run a CCTV survey to check for blockages, displaced joints or damage, and give you the footage. If the water came from Rainworth Water or the road, we'll tell you who to report it to, as those aren't private drains.
