Getting the right drainage

Building over or near a sewer

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.

Ordering drainage for Middlesbrough: FAQs

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).

Do I need an inspection chamber?

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

How soon can drainage be delivered in Middlesbrough?
