A 15 m run of 110 mm drain needs 5 pipes in 3 m lengths (or 3 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.

Things to check before you order

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.

Delivering drainage in Doncaster

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

• With roughly 7h 28m of daylight in Doncaster around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
• Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.

Questions about drainage delivery in Doncaster

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Doncaster?

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.

Do you deliver drainage to trades and homeowners in Doncaster?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

What fall should a drain have?

Domestic drains are commonly laid at a gradient around 1:40 to 1:80 depending on the pipe size and flow; follow your approved design or your national drainage guidance (Approved Document H in England and Wales, Technical Handbook section 3 in Scotland, Technical Booklet N in Northern Ireland).

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.
