Hatfield is a village and civil parish on the eastern edge of Doncaster, sitting on the former Hatfield Chase — a vast area of marshland that was drained in the 17th century by the Dutch engineer Cornelius Vermuyden. The landscape remains extremely flat and low-lying, with a high water table and heavy reliance on pumped drainage. Properties in Hatfield, Hatfield Woodhouse, Dunsville, and the surrounding area can experience drainage issues related to the high water table, particularly during wet winters. The local drainage infrastructure includes a network of ditches, dykes, and pumping stations in addition to the conventional sewer system managed by Yorkshire Water.
A homeowner in Hatfield Woodhouse contacted us after their septic tank drainage field stopped functioning during a wet winter. The high water table had saturated the ground around the soakaway, preventing effluent from dispersing. We installed a new raised drainage mound system that functions effectively even when the water table is high, and cleared the blocked pipework connecting the property to the tank.
Catching a blocked drain early can save you hundreds of pounds in emergency repairs. Here are the key warning signs every Doncaster homeowner should know.

Hatfield sits on the former Hatfield Chase, one of the lowest-lying areas in England. The high water table and flat terrain mean that drainage systems have to work harder, and properties can be affected by groundwater rising during wet weather. Our engineers understand these specific challenges.
Yes, we can investigate and improve land drainage to reduce waterlogging. This may include clearing blocked field drains, installing soakaways, or connecting to the existing drainage network. We assess each property individually to recommend the most effective solution.
