Working out quantities for your Suffolk job

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 your Suffolk delivery arrives

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 Suffolk.

• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around IP are priced to the exact address.
• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.

Things to check before you order

Covers for the location

Chamber covers are rated for loads, from pedestrian areas to drives. Tell us where each chamber sits.

Building over or near a sewer

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

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.

Underground Drainage in Suffolk: questions

Can you deliver drainage to a site with restricted access in Suffolk?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

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 add other materials to my Suffolk 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.
