Driveway drainage and soakaways across Gwynedd
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.
Even permeable drives sometimes need a channel: at the bottom of a slope towards a garage, across the top of a drive that falls to the pavement, or where clay ground drains slowly.
In Bangor we can price work such as fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive, adding a soakaway so water stays on the property and preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb.

Planning in Gwynedd
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.
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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Gwynedd, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
