Call Now: 07824 757572Hampstead NW3's prestigious housing stock dates largely from the Victorian and Edwardian eras, creating unique drainage challenges with original clay pipe networks now over 100 years old. These systems were designed for smaller households and struggle with modern usage patterns, while clay joints deteriorate allowing root penetration from the area's abundant mature trees.
