How We Diagnose the Problem

We inspect the existing soakaway, perform percolation tests to assess ground drainage capacity, and determine whether repair or full replacement is needed. Our report includes calculations for the correct soakaway size based on your property's requirements.

How We Fix It

We install modern crate-type soakaways that provide greater capacity and longevity than old brick or rubble designs. All installations meet current building regulations and include proper connections to your existing surface water drainage system.
