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.
Before quoting groundworks in Bangor, County Down we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. Homes in Bangor, County Down range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
