How delivery works in Newtownards

Pipe travels in 3 m and 6 m lengths; fittings and chambers come boxed or loose with the load. Deliveries to Northern Ireland include a sea crossing, so we quote each order individually.

  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Estimating your drainage

A 22 m run of 110 mm drain needs 8 pipes in 3 m lengths (or 4 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.

Before you order 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.

Building over or near a sewer

Building near a public sewer may need permission from the water company. Check before you dig.

In Northern Ireland building work follows the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland), with guidance in the Technical Booklets, and applications go to the council's building control team.

Your questions answered

Do you supply gutters and downpipes?

Yes, in common profiles and colours, with brackets and fittings.

Do you deliver drainage to trades and homeowners in Newtownards?

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

Do I need an inspection chamber?

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

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Newtownards?

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.
