Sizing your order

An 8 m run of 110 mm drain needs 3 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.

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

  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • On busy streets in Canterbury, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.

Choosing drainage

Covers for the location

Chamber covers are rated for loads, from pedestrian areas to drives. Tell us where each chamber sits.

Foul or surface water?

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

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.
