As Dorset’s county town, Dorchester brings together everything from Roman-era streets to the modern Poundbury development.

Contact us today to learn more about our full range of drainage services or to arrange an appointment for cleaning, repairs or inspections.
Dorchester’s roots stretch back to Roman times, when the town was known as Durnovaria. Consequently, centuries of building work have left a varied mix of pipework beneath its streets. We often encounter older clay drains alongside modern systems, sometimes within the same property. Our engineers know how to identify which approach suits each situation. Meanwhile, the town’s role as Dorset’s administrative centre means we regularly work on busy commercial premises and public buildings. Therefore, we plan our visits carefully around your operating hours wherever possible. Additionally, Dorchester sits along the River Frome, and its surrounding villages bring a steady need for septic tank care. This blend of historic centre and rural outskirts keeps our team versed in every drainage challenge.
Our wide range of services includes:
Drain cleaning
High pressure jet washing
Pressure washing
Pipe patching
Drain rodding
CCTV drain surveys
Drain relining
Emergency call-outs

“We had our gutters cleaned by Valley Drains and couldn’t be happier with the service. Darren was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish – friendly, professional, and efficient. The job was done quickly, to a really high standard, and it was great value for money. He also made sure everything was cleaned up afterwards. Highly recommended!”
“Valley Drains recently relaid one of our drains and provided an outstanding service throughout. The team was professional, punctual, and thorough, completing the work to a very high standard. The site was left clean and tidy, and communication was excellent from start to finish. We would have no hesitation in recommending Valley Drains to others. Thank you Darren and Jak”
“Very fast and very helpful – on site within the hour and having sorted the problem rather than charge a fee they advised me to contact Wessex Water who bore responsibility ( a fact I was unaware of!) and thereby saved me money and time. Courteous and respectful of property – rare these days! 5 stars.”
