Garden Drainage Systems

Crucial to every project — the water has to go somewhere. If that somewhere is currently towards your house, you need to beware.

Garden drainage work carried out by Shoots & Leaves

There are numerous drainage options available: Aco drains, mono-slot drains, soakaways or shingle gullies. These all allow water to be harvested for irrigation. Our garden drainage solutions cover residential and commercial property across London.

Since October 2008, SUDS regulations have applied to water run-off from front gardens and driveways. If the surface to be covered is more than five square metres, planning permission is needed for laying traditional, impermeable driveways that do not control rainwater running off onto roads.

Our drainage team installs surface and below-ground land drainage. We have worked on driveways, paving, lawns, planting borders, around swimming pools and field drainage.

  • Water entering the property
  • Clay soils
  • Compacted soils
