Driveway drainage and soakaways across Perth and Kinross
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 Perth include fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive, replacing failed edges that have started to crumble and digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base.

Planning in Perth and Kinross
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
Tayside has cold winters and a shorter laying season, so jobs are usually booked for the warmer months. Laying days in Perth are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.

Driveway drainage and soakaways in Perth and Kinross: questions
Is the price fixed for Perth and Kinross jobs?
Yes, once the scope and specification are agreed in writing. If hidden ground conditions turn up, we explain and agree any change with you before doing extra work.
What postcodes do you cover around Perth and Kinross?
We cover PH, KY and the surrounding districts, including Perth and Blairgowrie and Rattray.
Do I need planning permission in Perth and Kinross?
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
