FAQ

Foul Water Drainage Questions

Answers to common questions about foul water drainage installation. We cover projects for homes and businesses in Clyst Heath, across Exeter, and the surrounding Devon area.

What is the difference between foul and surface water?

+

Foul water comes from toilets, sinks, dishwashers, and washing machines. It requires treatment at a sewage plant. Surface water is rainwater from your roof, driveway, or patio, which normally flows directly into local rivers or soakaways. You must keep these two systems separate by law.

Do I need planning permission for new builds drainage in Devon?

+

It depends on the scope of your project. Standard domestic sewer installation for a small extension usually falls under permitted development, provided it meets Building Regulations. However, creating new sewer connections to the public main requires permission from the local water authority. I can guide you through this process.

How long does a drainage installation take?

+

A basic foul water connection for a home extension might take just a couple of days. Larger commercial foul drainage projects or off-grid wastewater treatment plants take longer. I always provide a clear timeline during my initial site visit so you know exactly what to expect.

Can you connect my commercial property to the main sewer?

+

Yes, I handle complete commercial sewer connections for businesses across Exeter, including the industrial estates at Sowton and Marsh Barton. I manage the groundwork, pipe laying, and final connection safely and efficiently.
