What driveway drainage and soakaways involve
Driveway drainage collects surface water and takes it to somewhere it can soak away safely, usually with a linear channel drain across the drive and a soakaway crate or rubble pit in the garden. It is needed where a drive is impermeable or slopes towards the house or garage.
Groundwork prices in Sandhurst depend on what is found below the surface, so the survey looks closely at ground conditions, access and drainage. Plots around Sandhurst are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
Typical projects we can quote for in Sandhurst include setting a channel drain across a garage entrance, adding a soakaway so water stays on the property and replacing failed edges that have started to crumble. More about driveway drainage and soakaways.

Planning in Sandhurst
Surface water from a drive should stay on your property or go to a suitable soakaway or surface water drain. It should not run onto the road or be connected to a foul sewer. Soakaways are sited away from buildings.
General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The South East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
