How Lansingerland handles it
Unblocking section, footage and €500
If the blockage is in the public space, the municipality is responsible for resolving it. You dig up the inspection chamber near the property boundary yourself to check. You can report it via 010 800 40 00 or the form at buitenoporde.lansingerland.nl.
If you have called in a company yourself without prior permission, the municipality will reimburse investigation costs only, up to € 500. You will then need an itemised invoice and camera footage of the location of the blockage. In case of misuse, the municipality will charge costs. And note: according to the municipality, root growth in the connection pipe is not a defect in the sewer system.

Polders, greenhouses and new-build
Lansingerland lies in deep polders between Rotterdam and Zoetermeer. The three centres have grown strongly since the 1990s, with new housing estates in Berkel en Rodenrijs (such as Westpolder) and Bergschenhoek, alongside old village ribbons and extensive greenhouse horticulture around Bleiswijk. In the new builds there is PVC, but on soft polder soil: gardens subside and connections can come loose. In the old ribbons there are older connections, sometimes already decades old.
Because the municipality explicitly does not regard root growth in the connection as a defect in the sewerage, you pay for root damage repairs yourself. If you have trees or large shrubs above the pipe, a timely camera inspection is therefore extra valuable.
How we tackle a sewer fracture in Lansingerland
- Call or WhatsApp. You tell us what you see. A photo of the subsidence, the manhole or the crawl space helps us assess what's needed.
- Camera inspection. We go into the pipe with the camera and determine with metre counter and transmitter where the fracture is and whether it's on your property or in the public section.
- Clarity about who is responsible. If the problem is on the municipality's side, we'll tell you and you'll receive the footage for your report.
- Price upfront and repair. If it's on your property, you'll receive a price and we'll carry out targeted repairs. Afterwards we check the result with the camera.
What we look out for in Lansingerland
- Footage with metre counter: we ensure that the camera footage clearly shows the location of the problem, so you can use it with the municipality.
- Itemised invoice: you receive an invoice on which investigation and repair are listed separately.
- Tree roots: your own responsibility in Lansingerland; we show how far they've spread and what the repair will cost.
- Homes near greenhouses: long connections and sometimes a shared drain with a business.
