Drainage

We stock and have access to an extensive range of groundwork and drainage products including:

Geotextiles
Geotextiles are permeable fabrics which are usually used to separate, filter, reinforce, protect or drain soil. Geotextiles come in three basic forms: woven - resembling mail bag sacking, needle punched - resembling felt, or heat bonded - resembling ironed felt. Geotextiles are usually placed to strengthen the soil and applied to roads, embankments, and retaining structures. 

Geomembranes
A geomembrane is a permeability synthetic membrane  barrier used to control fluid or gas migration. Geomembranes are made from thin continuous polymeric sheets but they can also be made from the impregnation of geotextiles with asphalt, elastomer or polymer sprays, or as multilayered bitumen geocomposites. 

Erosion Control Systems
Erosion control is the prevention or controlling of wind or water erosion in agriculture, land development and construction. Effective erosion controls are important techniques in preventing water pollution, soil loss, wildlife habitat loss and human property loss.

Pushfit Soil System
Pushfit soil systems are quick and easy to install as the compartments are made with a push-fit ring seal, so when installing no solvent welding is required. Most products are available in 32mm, 40mm and 50mm sizes and come in white, black and grey.

Cavity Drainage Systems
Cavity drain membranes provide an alternative to conventional cementitious tanking systems which work by holding the water back. Cavity drain membranes work on the principle of allowing water to continue to penetrate the structure but control it in the air gap and divert it to a suitable drainage point.

Drainage Sumps & Pumps
Sumps and pumps are used to remove water that has accumulated in a water collecting sump basin, commonly found in the basement of homes. The water may enter via the perimeter drains of a basement waterproofing system because of rain or natural ground water, if the basement is below the water table level.

We stock a wide range of components that are used to construct these systems from leading suppliers such as Brett Martin, Clark-Drain, Hargreaves Foundry, Burdens, 

Products include:

  • Sockets
  • Couplers
  • Pipe bends
  • Plugs
  • Aquaflow taps
  • Timloc ventilation
