Getting the right drainage

Foul or surface water?

Foul (sewage) and surface water often need to go to different places. Check where your drains connect before you order.

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.

Estimating your drainage

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.

Underground Drainage questions

How soon can drainage be delivered in Long Eaton?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Long Eaton?

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.

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.

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).
