In a previous blog post , we began a conversation on underground drainage – what it is, the difference between wastewater and surface water drainage, what an underground drainage system looks like and so on. Now we will discuss how an underground drainage system is installed.

Underground drainage is a system of pipes and fittings installed below ground level to transport wastewater to a sewage treatment facility or surface water to a soakaway, surface water drain or water course.

If you're looking for a reputable supplier of underground drainage materials for your project near Portsmouth or elsewhere on the south coast, look no further!

We are so used to seeing manhole covers in our daily lives that we barely spare them a second thought and, until one becomes a problem, probably take them for granted.

A poorly-drained horse riding arena won’t perform properly, will deteriorate quickly and can potentially become a safety risk.

Gravel and other loose aggregates make a cost-effective, practical and visually pleasing surface for paths and drives and well-drained bases for garden sheds and greenhouses.

In this blog post, we will look at what a gully is and where it is used, how it is constructed and functions, and how it can be cleaned.

We have previously answered a few commonly-asked questions about manhole covers, but as the questions keep coming, let’s answer a few more.

The outer layer of a twin-wall pipe is ribbed to give it strength and crush resistance, but the inner layer is smooth, which improves water flow.

A geotextile membrane is a layer of material placed between the layers of a horse arena floor. The membrane is either a woven or non-woven material.

We exhibited some of our latest innovative systems to the construction industry at the PlantWorx 2023 exhibition.

We often show how The SiteStak System helps large and prestigious projects, but the fact is that every project can benefit from having one.
