Poor drainage is the main cause of premature surface failure. We install channel drains, French drains, and soakaways as part of new surfacing projects or as standalone drainage work.
Water is the enemy of any paved surface. It infiltrates cracks, weakens the sub-base, causes frost damage in winter, and accelerates surface deterioration. Getting drainage right — before and during surfacing — is what separates a surface that lasts twenty years from one that starts failing within five.
We install drainage as an integral part of every surfacing project we carry out, and as standalone work where an existing surface is suffering because of poor water management. North Yorkshire's rainfall and varied terrain make drainage particularly important across the region.

Perforated pipe surrounded by free-draining aggregate, installed alongside tracks, driveways, and buildings to collect and redirect groundwater.
An excavated pit filled with aggregate that allows collected water to disperse into the surrounding ground, suitable where there is no convenient outfall.
Gullies and catchpits are installed where larger volumes of water need to be intercepted and directed to a drainage outfall.
We assess existing drainage systems for blockages, collapses, or inadequate capacity, and recommend the appropriate remediation.
When drainage is installed as part of a surfacing project, everything is coordinated by the same team to the same standard.
