Picking the right product

Building over or near a sewer

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

Covers for the location

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

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.

Planning the drop in Cheltenham

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

• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• 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.
