Quantities: a worked example

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.

Pipe travels in 3 m and 6 m lengths; fittings and chambers come boxed or loose with the load. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Northumberland.

• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.

Underground Drainage: choosing well

Building over or near a sewer

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

Foul or surface water?

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

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.
