Underground Drainage for sites in Gloucestershire
Underground drainage is the system of plastic pipes, bends, junctions and inspection chambers that carries foul and surface water away from a building, most often in 110 mm PVC-U pipe.
We price drainage for jobs anywhere in Gloucestershire; send a list or the sizes of the job and we will quote it delivered.

How much will you need?
A 30 m run of 110 mm drain needs 10 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.
Planning the drop in Gloucestershire
Pipe travels in 3 m and 6 m lengths; fittings and chambers come boxed or loose with the load. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Gloucestershire.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
- Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
- Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
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.
Building over or near a sewer
Building near a public sewer may need permission from the water company. Check before you dig.
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.
