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 Dungannon we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. In and around Dungannon, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Across County Tyrone, the projects we price include preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb, digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base and replacing failed edges that have started to crumble. 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. Laying days in Dungannon are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
