Driveway drainage and soakaways across Mid Glamorgan
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.
Typical projects we can quote for in Rhondda include setting a channel drain across a garage entrance, replacing failed edges that have started to crumble and digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base.

Planning in Mid Glamorgan
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
South Wales is wetter than most of England, so a permeable build or a planned route for water is essential on every drive. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
