Underground Drainage delivery in Westhill

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.

Trades and homeowners in Westhill can order drainage for delivery by sending a list, a drawing or just the sizes of the job.

Before you order 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 Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.

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

  • On busy streets in Westhill, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

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.

Underground Drainage questions

How soon can drainage be delivered in Westhill?

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.

Do you supply gutters and downpipes?

Yes, in common profiles and colours, with brackets and fittings.

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).

Do you deliver drainage to trades and homeowners in Westhill?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
