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 Enniskillen depend on what is found below the surface, so the survey looks closely at ground conditions, access and drainage. Around Enniskillen, longer drives and rural access are common, so deliveries and mixing space are planned at survey.
Across County Fermanagh, the projects we price include setting a channel drain across a garage entrance, fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive and adding a soakaway so water stays on the property. More about driveway drainage and soakaways.

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 Northern Ireland, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
Northern Ireland has frequent rain spread through the year, so laying days are planned around dry spells and permeable builds make sense. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
