Expert Drainage Installations for Homes & Businesses in Exeter

Expert Drainage for New Builds & Extensions

Building a new home or extending an existing one in areas like Cranbrook or Topsham often means designing and installing a brand-new drainage system. We work closely with homeowners, builders, and developers to plan and implement efficient foul and surface water drainage solutions. This includes laying new pipework, designing soakaways, and ensuring everything meets current building regulations and environmental standards. We understand the critical role drainage plays in the long-term health of any property, ensuring a robust and reliable system from day one.

Soakaways and Sustainable Surface Water Management

Effective management of surface water is key, especially with our regional weather patterns. Whether you're in Exmouth, Woodbury, or Broadclyst, we design and install soakaways to properly disperse rainwater back into the ground. Before any installation, we conduct thorough soakaway percolation tests to assess your ground's suitability, guaranteeing an efficient and compliant system. We also offer solutions like French drains to tackle persistent garden waterlogging, protecting your property's foundations and outdoor spaces from damp.

Septic Tanks & Modern Wastewater Treatment Plants

For properties not connected to the main sewer network, particularly in more rural parts of Exmouth, Ottery St Mary, or Tedburn St Mary, a reliable off-mains drainage solution is essential. We specialise in the installation of septic tanks and advanced wastewater treatment plants. These modern systems are designed to be environmentally compliant, efficient, and low maintenance. We guide you through the process, from initial site assessment and design to installation and final commissioning, making sure you have a system that works perfectly for your property.

Package Pump Stations for Challenging Sites

Sometimes, gravity isn't on your side. If your property's drainage needs to move wastewater uphill or over a long distance to connect to the main sewer, a package pump station is the answer. We expertly install these vital units for both domestic and commercial clients across our service area, including businesses on the outskirts of Newton Abbot or properties in Kenn. These self-contained units efficiently pump wastewater, ensuring reliable drainage even in challenging topographical situations.

FAQ

Drainage Installation Questions

Answers to common questions about our drainage installation services in Clyst Heath, Exeter, and the surrounding areas. Find out more about new pipework, soakaways, and sewer connections below.

What is the difference between foul water drainage and surface water drainage?

+

Foul water drainage carries wastewater from your toilets, sinks, showers, and washing machines to the main sewer or a treatment plant. Surface water drainage deals purely with rainwater falling on your roof, driveway, or patio, directing it to a soakaway or a natural watercourse.

Do I need planning permission for a soakaway installation?

+

In most standard residential cases, building a soakaway falls under permitted development. However, you must follow UK Building Regulations. The soakaway must sit at least five metres away from your home or any road. We handle the placement to keep everything strictly within the rules.

Why is my driveway constantly flooding during Devon winters?

+

Your current setup likely cannot handle the volume of rain, or you might have impermeable paving with nowhere for the water to escape. Installing ACO channel drainage across the threshold of your driveway quickly captures the runoff and redirects it safely, keeping your property dry.

How long do top-rated drainage installations take to complete?

+

It depends entirely on the size of the project. A simple ACO channel on a driveway might take just one day. Laying new foul water pipes for an extension or putting in a large commercial soakaway might take a few days. We always give you a clear timeline during our initial site visit.

Are you local to Clyst Heath?

+

Yes, our commercial base sits at Unit 6, Kestrel Business Park, EX2 7JS. We are just minutes away from Clyst Heath, meaning we can quickly reach you for site surveys, installations, and emergency call-outs.

Can you link my new extension to the existing drainage network?

+

Absolutely. We map out your current pipes using CCTV equipment if necessary, then design the smartest way to connect your new bathroom or kitchen safely to the main system.
