Alton Facility Services are trusted drain installation specialists serving the UK and offering nationwide coverage. Whether you're building a new property, upgrading an outdated system, or need a complete drainage design and installation — we deliver reliable, regulation-compliant solutions.
We design and install new drainage systems for all types of homes — from small extensions to full self-build projects. Services include:
We provide expert drainage installation for commercial and industrial clients across the UK and the UK. Ideal for:
Our engineers handle both above ground pipework and full below ground drainage systems. We manage everything from trench excavation and pipe laying, to manholes, channel drainage, interceptors and soakaway systems.
We offer a full design and consultancy service for clients who need a drainage strategy from the ground up. Our designs comply with UK building regulations, Environment Agency rules, and local water authority standards.
Where possible, we use trenchless techniques like directional drilling and moling to minimise disruption. These methods are ideal for laying new pipes under gardens, driveways, and roads with minimal mess or damage.
All drainage installation work is carried out by qualified, experienced engineers and comes with a full workmanship guarantee. We also provide as-built drawings and handover packs as standard.
Whether you're based in the UK or need a new drain system installed anywhere in the UK, we’ve got you covered. From treatment plants to trenching and soakaways — Alton Facility Services are the name to trust.
If you're wondering whether you need a new drainage system installed, you're not alone. At Alton Facility Services, we help homeowners, builders, and businesses across the UK and nationwide identify the right time to upgrade, replace or install new drainage infrastructure.
Planning a new build, extension, or garden room? You'll likely need a new drain installation to connect foul and surface water runoff into the mains, a septic tank, or a treatment plant.
Properties with ageing clay or pitch fibre pipes may experience frequent issues like blockages, smells, or ground movement. If you're spending money on repeat repairs, it's usually more cost-effective to install a modern, long-term drainage solution.
Water pooling around your home or garden? You may need a soakaway or land drainage system installed. These help prevent water damage, damp, and foundation problems caused by poor surface water management.
If you're converting a property for commercial use or expanding a site, the existing drainage may not meet Building Regs or capacity requirements. We assess flow rates and install compliant systems that match your building’s usage needs.
When new connections are required to mains sewers or surface water systems — especially on private land — we carry out Section 106 applications, trenching, and full connection works in line with local authority standards.
If your existing soakaway or tank is failing and causing backups, pollution or legal non-compliance, we offer fast drain installations to restore your drainage safely and legally. We also install new foul lines and distribution pipes.
Upgrading your garden, driveway or commercial site? This is the perfect time to install new surface water drainage, ACO channels, sump pumps or land drains — all installed by qualified professionals.
From residential soakaways in the UK to full foul and surface water systems for nationwide developments — we install drainage systems tailored to your site, budget and timescale.
At Alton Facility Services, we combine traditional expertise with cutting-edge techniques to deliver professional drain installations across the UK and the UK. Whether it's a small domestic soakaway or a full foul and surface system for commercial developments — we install drainage systems that are built to last.
For most drain installations, we carry out controlled excavation using mini diggers and trench shoring systems. Our engineers lay new pipework — typically 110mm or 160mm PVCu — at the correct gradients to ensure reliable flow. All trenchwork is backfilled and reinstated to the original condition where possible.
To minimise disruption to driveways, gardens or landscaping, we use trenchless moling technology. This allows us to install new drain runs or ducts beneath the surface with no need for open excavation. Ideal for retrofitting foul or surface drains to existing properties.
We install ACO channels, French drains, soakaways and land drains to manage rainwater, prevent flooding and keep your property dry. These are especially effective in waterlogged gardens or clay-heavy soil areas around the UK.
For new homes, extensions or commercial premises, we connect foul drains to mains sewers or private systems like treatment plants. We also handle Section 106 applications and notify Building Control as part of the job.
Where natural gravity isn’t possible — such as in basements or low-lying land — we install sump pumps and pumping stations to move wastewater efficiently. These include control panels, alarms, and backflow protection for complete peace of mind.
We install both plastic and concrete inspection chambers for easy access, maintenance and compliance. Manholes are sized and positioned according to Building Regs Part H, and integrated into the drainage layout from day one.
From car parks and retail sites to housing developments and factories — our commercial drainage team works on new builds, refurbishments, and industrial infrastructure across the UK. We follow CDM regs, provide RAMS, and deliver to spec every time.
Our installations across the UK and the wider UK are trusted by homeowners, developers, landlords and commercial contractors — because we do it properly, the first time.
