Ward Environmental Services Limited WES, Ward Environmental Services Limited - Off-Mains Drainage Consultancy - 01903 866333

In 1987 aged 15, I was fortunate to be placed with a manufacturing company called Entec (Pollution Control) Ltd on my work experience from school in Andover, Hampshire. That’s me on the left of the picture below looking somewhat bewildered at the strange looking large tanks and wondering why I didn’t choose a nice clean office to fill the next two weeks of my life! It turned out to be the best decision I made, the company was run by an amazing group of passionate people with a proper ‘open door’ policy, everybody was encouraged to be involved in helping the company grow. I was the first work experience student they had taken and I obviously made an impression as they invited me back during my summer holidays that same year. They went on to offer me an apprenticeship when I left school combined with supporting me through college on a day release programme to obtain my A-Levels and a BTEC. British Water Accredited Engineer

After 3 months training in each department including factory floor, engineering, accounts and transport, I found my true vocation, sales! Aged 19, I was promoted to the position of Sales Office Manager, then a further two years later, I was let loose to cover the Hampshire area as a Sales Representative and then for the next 10 years the whole of the South East, working with home owners, their Architects and Contractors and then finally as a specialist installer myself, offering a complete turn-key solution, from initial drainage layout design, installation and then ongoing maintenance as a British Water Accredited Engineer. Using all the experiences I have acquired over the last 30 years enables me to help and advise people in any given situation, no matter what. From a single house to a large hotel complex, I have the experience to advise all types of clients on all aspects of current legislation, product specification, installation and maintenance.

A new sewage treatment plant has arrived on site, ready for another Ward Environmental Services installation! 🚛

This Clenviro Matrix Sewage Treatment Plant will replace an existing septic tank serving three cottages, where the current system has a non-compliant overflow into a watercourse.

It’s a good example of why it’s important to understand whether an existing off-mains drainage system meets current requirements, particularly when several properties share the same system.

Our team will be installing the new treatment plant as part of the work to address the existing drainage arrangements, and we’ll share more photos as the project progresses.

If your property has an older septic tank, particularly one that discharges into a stream or other watercourse, it’s worth checking whether the system complies with current Environment Agency requirements.

Not sure if your existing septic tank is compliant, or considering a replacement? Call us on 01903 866333 to discuss your options. 📞

Two teams working together, and a great example of how Ward Environmental Services and EnviroServ complement each other. 🤝

It's good to see 2 of our vans on site together, showing how our installation and aftercare teams work alongside one another.

At Ward Environmental Services, we specialise in off-mains drainage consultancy, surveys, design and installation, while our sister company EnviroServ provides the servicing, maintenance and repair expertise needed to look after these systems.

Having both businesses working closely together means our customers can benefit from specialist support at every stage, whether they're planning a new installation or need help looking after an existing system. And of course, EnviroServ can also maintain systems installed by other contractors.

If you're looking for a team that can support your off-mains drainage requirements from initial advice through to ongoing maintenance, please get in touch with Ward Environmental Services on 01903 866333. 📞

More good news for the Ward Environmental Services family as EnviroServ continues to grow! 🙌

We're pleased to welcome Jack Harrison to our sister company, EnviroServ, as its new Service Engineer covering Kent. Jack joins with valuable experience as a tanker and jetter technician and is pictured here alongside EnviroServ's Senior Engineer, Joshua Cole.

As Ward Environmental Services continues to provide specialist off-mains drainage consultancy, surveys and installations, having a dedicated and growing aftercare team at EnviroServ means we can also support customers with ongoing servicing, maintenance and repairs.

And importantly, EnviroServ's services aren't limited to Ward Environmental Services installations. The team also supports homeowners and businesses with existing off-mains drainage systems. It's great to see the business expanding its coverage in Kent and strengthening the support available to our customers across the South East.

If you're planning an off-mains drainage installation or need advice about an existing system, contact Ward Environmental Services on 01903 866333. We can help you with the installation and ongoing aftercare. 📞

Off-mains drainage isn’t one size fits all.

Every property and every site is different, which is why the right solution starts with understanding exactly what you’re dealing with.

At Ward Environmental Services, we work with homeowners, property buyers and sellers, developers and commercial clients on all aspects of off-mains drainage.

That might mean carrying out a survey to establish the condition and compliance of an existing system, designing and specifying a new solution, replacing a septic tank or installing a sewage treatment plant, cesspool or pump station.

For more complex projects, we can also provide bespoke consultancy, project management and on-site supervision, helping to manage the process from the initial assessment through to installation.

Our approach is straightforward. We look at the site, understand what’s required and give you advice based on your particular needs.

If you have an off-mains drainage system that needs attention, you’re buying or selling a property, or you have a new project in the pipeline, speak to us before deciding what comes next.

Call the team on 01903 866333 to talk through your requirements and find out how we can help.

Here at Ward Environmental Services we keep up to date with any changes to the General Binding Rules and Building Control requirements. ✅

We know non-compliant systems risk forced upgrades, delays in sale, penalties and environmental damage. Proactive checks early in the sales process protects assets and reduces future remediation costs. 💡

If you’re an estate agent, surveyor, or solicitor and want to talk to us in confidence about a client’s property, please get in touch. ☎️

With potential flooding in the garden, Catherine called us in to raise the blower box and help protect it from the risk of water.

Elliott and Josh got the job sorted quickly, working with what was already in the garden and, most importantly, leaving another very happy Ward Environmental Services customer.

It’s great to see them described as helpful and resourceful, and we’ll make sure the feedback is passed on to them both.

Thank you Catherine for taking the time to leave us a five-star review.

If something doesn’t look quite right with your off-mains drainage system, don’t wait for it to become a bigger problem. Please get in touch with the team on 01903 866333 to see how we can help.

What does your roof water have to do with your foul drainage? More than you might think on an older property. 🏡

On some older houses, rainwater from the roof is combined with the foul drainage system. As part of bringing the drainage up to current requirements, the two need to be separated.

Here, our team has installed a new rainwater soakaway, allowing the roof water to be dealt with separately from the foul drainage.

It’s another example of why off-mains drainage work isn’t always simply a case of replacing a septic tank. The wider drainage system needs to be considered too.

If you have an older property with off-mains drainage and you’re unsure what’s actually happening below ground, speak to the team on 01903 866333. 📞

You might notice something new on the Ward Environmental Services vans… 👀

The first of our newly branded vehicles is now out on the road, proudly carrying the ‘Incorporating Country Drainage’ name.

Following our acquisition of Country Drainage earlier this year, we’ve been working to bring the two businesses together while continuing to build on the reputation and experience Country Drainage has established over the last 40 years. Seeing the name on a WES van makes that next chapter feel very real.

For existing Country Drainage customers, the name and the service you know are continuing as part of Ward Environmental Services. And together with EnviroServ, we’re able to support our customers from initial advice, surveys and design through to installation, servicing and ongoing maintenance.

So, if you spot this van out and about across the South East, give us a wave! 👋

And if you’ve previously used Country Drainage and need help with your off-mains drainage system, you can now contact the WES team on 01903 866333.

The same expertise but two very different sites...

One day the WES team can be working at a private home, carefully installing an off-mains drainage solution within an established property.

On another, we can be on a large commercial site with heavy plant, complex excavations and a very different set of requirements.

That breadth of work is a big part of what we do at Ward Environmental Services.

From domestic properties with septic tanks and sewage treatment plants through to large-scale commercial off-mains drainage projects, our team has the experience, equipment and specialist knowledge to manage projects of very different sizes and complexities.

If you have an off-mains drainage project coming up, for a single property or a larger commercial site, please talk to our expert team about what you need, 01903 866333.

What were the Ward Environmental Services Team up to here?

Well, they were replacing a non-compliant septic tank with a Klargester Water Management Solutions BioDisc sewage treatment plant, providing the property with a compliant, reliable and long-term off-mains drainage solution. 👌

Many older septic tanks no longer meet current requirements, often without homeowners realising until they come to sell their property or experience issues with the existing system.

If your home relies on off-mains drainage and you're unsure whether your septic tank is compliant, it's worth getting advice early. Please get in touch to arrange a survey or discuss your options. 💬
