FAQs
The best drainage system depends on the problem you are trying to solve. For surface water around a house, solutions such as French drains, channel drains, soakaways and improved falls can all be effective. For foul drainage, the correct solution depends on whether the property connects to mains drainage or requires a private system such as a septic tank or treatment plant. There is no single best option for every property, because ground conditions, water table, local authority rules, available outfalls and the cause of the water problem all matter. A drainage survey is usually the best first step before recommending a system.
Drainage pipework should be inspected and cleaned at intervals that suit the type of system, the building use and the risk of blockages. For a typical domestic property, a visual check and reactive cleaning when problems arise may be enough where the system is working properly. However, where there are recurring blockages, many trees nearby, grease build-up, older pipework, shared drains or commercial kitchen use, more regular planned inspections are sensible. As a general guide, domestic drainage can often be CCTV inspected or professionally checked every few years, while higher-risk systems may need annual inspection and more frequent cleaning. Commercial drainage, especially systems taking greasy waste, often needs a planned maintenance schedule with periodic jetting and trap cleaning to reduce the risk of backups and disruption.
