Underground Drainage: choosing well

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.

How delivery works in Frome

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

• Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
• On busy streets in Frome, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

Estimating your drainage

A 26 m run of 110 mm drain needs 9 pipes in 3 m lengths (or 5 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.

Your questions answered

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Frome?

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.

Can you deliver drainage to a site with restricted access in Frome?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

Do I need an inspection chamber?

Drains need access points at changes of direction and junctions in many cases. Your design will show where.

What size drainage pipe do I need?

110 mm is the standard size for most domestic underground foul and surface water drains; 160 mm is used for larger runs. Your design or building control will confirm.
