Oxford's period homes and low-lying riverside ground make high water tables and ageing drains the main problems. A camera survey can confirm both.
Much of Oxford sits on the Thames and Cherwell floodplain. A high water table lets groundwater into many runs, and a lot of period housing keeps its original drains. Extensions and build-over work in popular suburbs add displaced and crossed drains to the list.
