Underground Drainage for sites in Scottish Borders
Underground drainage is the system of plastic pipes, bends, junctions and inspection chambers that carries foul and surface water away from a building, most often in 110 mm PVC-U pipe.
For sites in Scottish Borders, our drainage prices include delivery to your postcode, with the offload agreed when you order.

Working out quantities for your Scottish Borders job
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.
Delivering drainage in Scottish Borders
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 Scottish Borders.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
Choosing 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 Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.
