Thank you Express Drainage Solution for helping us retrieve the car keys. My wife dropped them by mistake in a drain. Their tech was able to retrieve them in 15-20 mins. Their manager Scarlett was super helpful in setting up the appointment and providing necessary assurance. They saved us from 2-3 weeks of downtime and hassle/money required by Lexus to order and program keys.

Our Drain Installation Process

For any drain installation, we take a thorough and methodical approach to ensure you get long-term performance. We also pay careful attention to provide drains that comply with UK regulations. Here is an overview of our drain installation process:

  1. We visit your site. Our team will start with an assessment to understand the layout and ground conditions. Our survey can also include testing water flow and existing connections.
  2. Design and planning. Using the information we gather, we can design a system layout to meet your needs and comply with Building Regulations (Part H). Where necessary, we may coordinate with Building Control and local authorities.
  3. Groundworks. Our team carries out careful excavation of trenches to the right depth and gradient, ensuring your system has the fall needed to facilitate efficient water flow.
  4. Pipework installation. Our next step involves the installation of high-quality foul water or surface water drainage systems. We connect this system to the mains sewers, septic tanks or soakaways as required.
  5. Final inspection. Upon completing the installation, we then take the time to test the system thoroughly. We can also provide sign-off or certification where needed to satisfy building inspectors.

Types of Drainage Systems We Install

There are many options when it comes to new drains. We offer solutions suitable for all ground types and site requirements, including:

  • Foul water drains – For removing waste water from your property (toilets, sinks, appliances, etc.). These are then connected to mains sewer lines or an on-site treatment system.
  • Surface water drains – To help channel rainwater away from roofs, patios and driveways, preventing flooding. These can involve channels, gullies and soakaways.
  • Inspection chambers and manholes – These are access points we can install for the system, allowing for future maintenance and inspections. This means you can avoid disruptive excavations later.
  • Subsurface land drains – These specialist drainage systems are designed to manage areas prone to waterlogging, such as sports fields and agricultural land. This system uses buried pipework or open trenching to draw water away.

FAQs

Do I need permission to install a new drain?
In many cases, you may need permission to connect to a public sewer. We can advise you on the permissions you’ll require and can liaise with the local authority if required. To discuss the planning required for your drainage system – and whether it’s needed – contact us today.
Can you connect new drains to the existing system?
Yes, we can absolutely connect your new drains to your existing drainage system. We’ll assess the system and the condition it’s in before making new connections. If we feel this isn’t the best way forward, we’ll advise you and discuss any potential routes forward.
How much does drain installation cost?
The cost of new drain installation can vary wildly depending on the complexity of the job. Replacing one section of a drain for a home and installing a whole new system for a large commercial property are two very different projects. We provide free assessments to give you a quote that is more accurate, so you can make an informed decision about the future of your property. Simply call today and arrange an assessment.
