Getting the right drainage
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 England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.
Working out quantities for your Bristol job
A 10 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.
Getting drainage onto your Bristol site
Pipe travels in 3 m and 6 m lengths; fittings and chambers come boxed or loose with the load. Bristol is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- On busy streets in Bristol, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
- Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
