  • ABOUT THIS SERVICE

When do sewer pipes need replacing?

A sewer pipe lasts a long time, but not for ever. Over time a pipe can sink or crack, joints can come loose and tree roots can grow in. Unblocking then only helps for a while: because the pipe itself is damaged, the blockage keeps coming back. We first trace where it goes wrong and then replace only the section that is no longer sound.

Sewer problems happen in Lelystad too. In the municipality’s 2021 sewer survey, 18% of the 1,102 panel members said they had had problems with the sewer in the previous five years, such as a blockage, a leak or a bad smell. Land subsidence also plays a part: the municipality names it as a building risk in the city. If the garden and the street sink relative to your house, the connection to the sewer can come under strain or start to leak.

If you notice one of these signs, there is probably more going on than an ordinary blockage:

  • A drain that keeps getting blocked again
  • Sunken tiles or paving bricks above the sewer pipe
  • Damp or a wet patch in the crawl space
  • A sewer smell in the house or garden
  • Gurgling noises from the toilet or drain
  • A renovation where drains need rerouting

Check the rodding point first

In Lelystad you are responsible for the connection on your own land, up to and including the rodding point (ontstoppingsputje) at the property boundary. The main sewer, the pumping stations and the pumps belong to the municipality. If the rodding point is full of water, the blockage is probably further along in the municipal sewer. Report it via lelystad.nl/meldingdoen or 14 0320 (option 3); the municipality says it deals with reports within 24 hours. If the rodding point is empty, the problem is on your side and we will solve it for you.

Rainwater drainage

Is your downpipe leaking, loose or overflowing? We repair it, along with the pipe that carries the rainwater to the sewer.

Is it a blockage?

Sewer pipes and the rest of your drainage

Is it just a blockage? Then start with sewer unblocking. We also replace or reroute water pipes; you can read more about that under leaks and pipework.

If you are getting a new bathroom, we lay the drain to suit the new layout: see bathroom and toilet renovation. If a new kitchen is going in, we take the drain to where the sink will be; more on this under kitchen installation. You can find the prices under our prices.

  • FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions about sewers and drains in Lelystad

Can’t find the answer to your question here? Feel free to call or WhatsApp us, outside office hours too.

What does it cost to replace sewer pipes in Lelystad?

That depends on how long the pipe is, how deep it lies and what is on top of it. For this work you get a fixed-price quote in advance, based on photos and measurements or after a visit. That visit is not free; you hear what it costs in advance. We charge small repairs by the hour: €181.44 incl. VAT (€149.95 excl. VAT) for the first hour on site and €108.84 incl. VAT (€89.95 excl. VAT) for each additional hour. In Lelystad there is also a one-off call-out charge of €42.35 incl. VAT (€35 excl. VAT).

Who is responsible for the sewer in Lelystad: me or the municipality?

You are responsible for the connection on your own land, including the rodding point (ontstoppingsputje) at the property boundary. The Municipality of Lelystad takes care of the main sewer, the pumping stations and the pumps. If the blockage is in the municipal sewer, report it via lelystad.nl/meldingdoen or call 14 0320 (option 3). According to the municipality, the report is dealt with within 24 hours. If the problem is on your side, we can help you further.

What is the difference between unblocking and replacing sewer pipes?

When we unblock, we remove a blockage from a pipe that is otherwise in good order. If the blockage keeps coming back, the pipe has often sunk, cracked or had roots grow into it. In that case only replacing it really helps.

Does the whole garden have to be dug up?

No. We only dig where the pipe is broken or where the new pipe is going. We carefully lift the paving slabs and bricks and put them back after the work.

How long does it take to replace a sewer pipe?

We usually replace a short section of pipe within a day. If the pipe is longer or a lot of digging is needed, it takes more time; we discuss that with you in advance. While we work, you cannot use the drain for a few hours.

Can I have a drain rerouted for my renovation?

Yes. Let us know in good time, that is, before the floor is closed up or the kitchen or bathroom is fitted. We then lay the drain in the right place and with enough fall, so that the water can drain away properly.

Problems with the sewer pipes in Lelystad?

Send a photo of the situation via WhatsApp or give us a call. We will tell you whether unblocking is enough or the pipe needs replacing, and roughly what that will cost.
