Underground Drainage for sites in Warwickshire
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.
Builders, trades and self-builders in Warwickshire can order drainage for delivery to Nuneaton, Kenilworth and the towns in between.

Sizing your order
A 26 m run of 110 mm drain needs 9 pipes in 3 m lengths (or 5 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 Warwickshire 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 Warwickshire.
- If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
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.
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.
Common questions from Warwickshire
What do I bed drainage pipe in?
Usually pea gravel or a similar granular material around the pipe. We can add it to the order as bulk bags.
What fall should a drain have?
Domestic drains are commonly laid at a gradient around 1:40 to 1:80 depending on the pipe size and flow; follow your approved design or your national drainage guidance (Approved Document H in England and Wales, Technical Handbook section 3 in Scotland, Technical Booklet N in Northern Ireland).
Can I add other materials to my Warwickshire 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.
How soon can drainage be delivered in Warwickshire?
We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.
