Choosing drainage
Building over or near a sewer
Building near a public sewer may need permission from the water company. Check before you dig.
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.
Working out quantities for your Macclesfield job
A 10 m run of 110 mm drain needs 4 pipes in 3 m lengths (or 2 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.
Getting drainage onto your Macclesfield site
Pipe travels in 3 m and 6 m lengths; fittings and chambers come boxed or loose with the load. Macclesfield is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
- Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
