Underground Drainage delivery in Wimbledon

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.

Whether it is a repair, an extension or a new build in Wimbledon, we can supply the drainage and deliver to site.

Our drainage range for Wimbledon jobs

  • Pea gravel beddingBedding and surround for pipe trenches.
  • Inspection chambers and coversPlastic chambers with covers rated for the location.

Before your Wimbledon delivery arrives

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

  • In summer Wimbledon gets around 16h 37m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.

How much will you need?

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.

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.

Underground Drainage in Wimbledon: questions

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 Wimbledon?

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

Can I connect to the public sewer?

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