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.
In Flint, the survey for this work is about levels, falls and ground conditions: where water goes now, what is under the surface and how materials will reach the site. Many homes in Flint have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Projects we quote in and around Flint include adding a soakaway so water stays on the property, setting a channel drain across a garage entrance and fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive. More about driveway drainage and soakaways.

Planning in Flint
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 Wales, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
North Wales ranges from mild coastal towns to wetter upland areas, so drainage and laying days are planned with the weather in mind. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.

Do I need planning permission in Flint?
Wales has its own permitted development rules on the same principle: a front-garden hard surface should be porous or drain to a permeable area on the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
