Chessmount is a quiet residential area sitting on the eastern side of Chesham, mostly HP5, about 10 minutes from the town centre. It's largely owner-occupied, with a mix of 1960s and 1970s semis and detached houses spread across gently sloping streets. The drainage jobs we pick up here tend to be blocked drains and slow-running gullies, along with the occasional cracked lateral caused by ground movement on those slopes. Nothing unusual, but the pipework is getting on a bit.
We come in off the A416 and work our way up through the residential streets. The housing stock is predominantly post-war suburban, built in phases through the 1960s and 70s, which means the drain runs under gardens and driveways are mostly original clay. Tree cover has grown significantly since those houses went up, and root ingress into pipe joints is one of the more common things we find on a CCTV survey here. Shared gullies between semis are another regular headache.
Most common Chessmount jobs
- Clearing blocked kitchen or bathroom drains in 1960s semis
- CCTV surveys to trace root ingress in original clay laterals
- Gully clearance on driveways and shared paths between properties
- Relining cracked pipe sections without digging up garden slabs
- Slow-drain investigations where the cause turns out to be a partially collapsed joint under a driveway

Chessmount FAQ
Yes, you do. Intermittent blockages that self-clear usually mean there's a partial obstruction, often a root mass or a collapsed joint that's catching debris. On older clay pipework like you'll find in much of Chessmount, it doesn't fix itself, it gets worse. A CCTV survey will show you exactly what's happening before it turns into a full blockage or a sewage backup.
