Getting the right 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.

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.

Getting drainage onto your Oakham site

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

  • In summer Oakham gets around 16h 52m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

Quantities: a worked example

An 18 m run of 110 mm drain needs 6 pipes in 3 m lengths (or 3 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 Oakham

Do I need an inspection chamber?

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

Can I connect to the public sewer?

New connections to a public sewer usually need approval from the local water company.
