Delivering drainage in Milton Keynes

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

• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around MK6 are priced to the exact address.
• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.

Getting the right 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.

How much will you need?

A 12 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.

Common questions from Milton Keynes

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 you deliver drainage to trades and homeowners in Milton Keynes?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

Can I add other materials to my Milton Keynes delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from drainage to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

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.
