Things to check 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.
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.
Delivery to Consett: what helps
Pipe travels in 3 m and 6 m lengths; fittings and chambers come boxed or loose with the load. Consett is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
- In summer Consett gets around 17h 20m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
