Underground drainage is the system of plastic pipes, bends, junctions and inspection chambers that carries foul and surface water away from a building, most often in 110 mm PVC-U pipe.

Trades and homeowners in Bathgate can order drainage for delivery by sending a list, a drawing or just the sizes of the job.

Underground Drainage: choosing well

Foul or surface water?

Foul (sewage) and surface water often need to go to different places. Check where your drains connect before you order.

Building over or near a sewer

Building near a public sewer may need permission from the water company. Check before you dig.

In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.

Quantities: a worked example

A 12 m run of 110 mm drain needs 4 pipes in 3 m lengths (or 2 in 6 m lengths), plus a bend or junction at each change of direction and an inspection chamber where your design shows one. Add pea gravel for bedding and surround and we will price the lot together.

Planning the drop in Bathgate

Pipe travels in 3 m and 6 m lengths; fittings and chambers come boxed or loose with the load. Bathgate is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.

Underground Drainage questions

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Bathgate?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

Can you deliver drainage to a site with restricted access in Bathgate?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

What do I bed drainage pipe in?

Usually pea gravel or a similar granular material around the pipe. We can add it to the order as bulk bags.

Do you supply gutters and downpipes?

Yes, in common profiles and colours, with brackets and fittings.
