Soakaway Installation in Hampshire by Alton Facility Services

Expert Soakaway Installation in Hampshire

A correctly installed soakaway removes excess surface water, prevents pooling, protects foundations and stops gardens from becoming waterlogged. Our Hampshire team designs systems based on soil type, ground permeability and property layout, ensuring long-term performance.

We install a range of systems including crate soakaways, traditional rubble soakaways, linear drainage channels, French drains and full stormwater management solutions. If an existing soakaway has failed, we can diagnose the issue using CCTV, ground surveys and infiltration testing before replacing or upgrading the system.

Why Soakaways Are Essential

In Hampshire, soakaway problems often arise from poor soil permeability, ageing systems, incorrect installation or increased rainfall. Common issues we resolve include:

  • Waterlogged gardens and persistent surface flooding
  • Failed soakaway crates or blocked rubble soakaways
  • Insufficient infiltration due to clay-heavy soil
  • Flooding around driveways, patios and outbuildings
  • Standing water causing damp or foundation issues

All soakaway installations and repairs include full reporting, infiltration assessments and long-term drainage recommendations.

How Our Soakaway Installation Process Works

Our structured soakaway installation process ensures correct design, placement and long-lasting stormwater management:

  1. Site Survey & Ground Infiltration Testing: Incorrectly installed or undersized drainage systems
  2. Choosing the Right Soakaway System: Blocked pipes feeding into the soakaway
  3. Excavation & Ground Preparation: Collapsed or silted soakaway chambers
  4. Installing Crates, Chambers or Rubble Systems: Stormwater overwhelming outdated systems
  5. Connecting Surface Water Drainage: Ground movement affecting drainage flow
  6. Backfilling & Reinstating the Area: Tree roots damaging soakaway or drainage channels
  7. Final Testing & Performance Checks: Rural property drainage failures in high-rainfall areas

All installations include documentation, infiltration results and guidance to keep your drainage system performing efficiently.
