Arrival time Rijsenhout
counted from the phone call
- Municipality of Haarlemmermeer
- Arrival usually 35 to 65 minutes
- Polder, four metres below sea level
- Old ribbon with clay pipe connections
Rijsenhout belongs to the municipality (gemeente) of Haarlemmermeer and lies in the polder, a drained lake bed more than four metres below sea level, with the Ringvaart, the ring canal that holds the polder back, as its eastern edge. That is a different working area from the peat on the far side of the water: reclaimed ground with an artificially low water level, where settlement runs unevenly between the old ribbon and the later extensions.
Along the Aalsmeerderweg, the ribbon that runs through the village parallel to the ring canal, the oldest buildings stand, with house connections that are sometimes still made of vitrified clay pipe (gres) rather than plastic. Towards the Bennebroekerweg and the newer streets behind it the housing is younger, and the work is more often on the hot water side of the heating system than on the drains.
Arrival time to Rijsenhout is usually 35 to 65 minutes. Roadworks on the N201 or around Schiphol-Oost can push that up, and you hear about it when you call.
Not an emergency, but you have a question?

Questions about Rijsenhout
How quickly can you be in Rijsenhout?
Usually within 35 to 65 minutes. With roadworks or closures on the N201 and around Schiphol-Oost it can take longer; you hear on the phone what it will be.
My house connection is clay pipe, is that a problem?
Vitrified clay (gres) lasts a long time but it is rigid. In the polder the ground settles, play develops at the joints between the sections, and roots grow in. That is the most common cause of a recurring blockage in the old ribbon along the Aalsmeerderweg, and a camera confirms it.
Do you work on the business parks near Rijsenhout?
Yes, for the same faults: leaks, blockages and heating. In a unit with its own plant room it helps if you know where the main isolating valve and the meter cupboard are, because that saves search time on the hourly rate.
