Broken sewer in Westland? Call 070 783 0224.
Rated on Google · Price in advance · Guarantee on the work
In Westland the boundary is different from most municipalities. Your sewer connection does not stop at the property boundary, but continues to the main sewer under the road. Unblocking, repairing and replacing that entire connection pipe is the owner's responsibility. That makes a thorough inspection here extra important.

Special in Westland: the connection is yours, even under the road
What the municipality of Westland says
As the owner, you are responsible for the installation and maintenance of the connection pipe, including unblocking, repair and replacement. Your private connection continues a short distance under the public road, up to the main sewer. The municipality maintains the main sewer, the chambers and the gullies.
A blockage in the main sewer is paid for by the municipality; report it via 14 0174 or the online form. In case of misuse of the private connection, costs will be charged to the owner. The municipality advises asking your neighbours first: if they have no problems, it's often your own pipe.

If the break is under the pavement or the carriageway, repair there is more work than in a garden, and consultation with the municipality about opening the street is required. With the camera inspection we know in advance where we need to be and can prepare that properly.
Clay, peat and greenhouses
Westland is low-lying, on clay and peat. The municipality itself points out that subsidence occurs when a peat or clay layer becomes too dry, and that on your own land you are responsible for the groundwater level. When the ground subsides, pipes subside with it, while houses and greenhouses remain standing on piles.
In addition, distances in Westland are often greater: long driveways, properties behind a commercial building or between greenhouses, and connections that run under a property or paving. Finding a break 20 metres from the façade without a camera is guesswork. With the metre counter and transmitter we know it to the metre.

How we tackle a sewer burst in Westland
- 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 pay attention to in Westland
- Village centres: in the old centres of Naaldwijk, Monster, 's-Gravenzande and De Lier there are older connections, sometimes made of stoneware.
- New builds in Wateringen and Honselersdijk: PVC with a separate system; make sure rainwater is not connected to the foul water sewer.
- Property at a business or greenhouse: sometimes home and business share a drain. Then clearly recording what runs where is extra important.
- Works under the road: requires preparation and consultation; we tell you honestly in advance what that means for time and costs.

Questions about a sewer break in Westland
In Westland, is the sewer under the road also mine?
Yes, according to the municipality of Westland, your private connection runs all the way to the main sewer, including under the public road. Unblocking, repair and replacement of that connection pipe are the owner's responsibility. The main sewer itself belongs to the municipality.
When do I call the municipality in Westland?
If the main sewer appears blocked, for example because the neighbours are also experiencing problems. You report this via 14 0174 or the online form. If only you are affected, it is usually in your own connection.
Can you repair a break under the pavement?
We first determine with the camera whether the break is there. Work in the public space requires consultation with the municipality. We discuss in advance with you what that means for the schedule and the price.
