Fleet Flooding | Flooding Issues in Fleet, Hampshire (Thames Water)

I am signing this petition because my little cottage was flooded from all sides. I’m still making my own sand bags just in case the house sails off into the sunset. Get your finger out Thames Water and move with the times!

This has made our lives a misery for years and Thames Water do nothing except give us excuses and make a fortune from the amount of time we are on the phone with them. We simply can’t take it anymore.

[These upgrades are] so necessary – we are not meant to be living with third world standards! Hart is supposedly the best place to live – how can it be when our residents are enduring such filthy water flooding their homes & gardens!

This is disgusting for everyone affected including the natural environment

Fleet residents have been treated very shoddily by a company that makes lots of money and is in a monopoly position – it’s about time Thames Water took some responsibility and showed some respect to the people who pay the bills.

Children shouldn’t have to walk through sewage to get to school!

I suffer from a flooded garden for between 3 – 11 months out of the year . My 90 foot garden is a waste of space ! I cant even let my dog out in it !

Disgusting that children are having to walk through sewerage and nobody is doing anything about it. Also since we have had more and more houses built the flooding problem is getting worse, it’s as if the drainage system in Fleet is not coping.

The sewage system in the local area is truly disgusting, living near it makes you wonder whether a small puddle is simply clear rain water or something you left behind and did not expect or want to see again.

Fleet has accepted significant additional housing without corresponding investment in infrastructure including sewage and drainage facilities.

As Leader of Hart DC I am determined to get Thames Water to fix these problems once and for all !!

This is on the way to school and our children walk through this!

I am a resident in Fleet and my children may well have to walk through this sewage to get to school in the future.

We experienced pump failure this winter several times and were unable to use any of our facilities.

It is disgusting and completely wrong. Please do something about it.

Sewage puddles near school. Unacceptable in my view.

This isn’t acceptable for any homeowners or for the children who need to wade through sewage to get an education. The company has been informed countless times and seems to have done nothing to rectify the situation so it stops happening long term.

Health and safety should be important to everyone…

Every time I talk to an engineer about why the flooding is happening, they ALL say it is because the pumping station is not able to handle the flow. The pumps trip the circuit and off they stay, causing flooding and raw sewage to come out year after year after year!

I have had 13 years of misery, 3 times the sewage has entered my property, numerous times the drains have surcharged flooding my garden with sewage. Want to move, but I am stuck like a prisoner and not enough is done to resolve the issue.
