Alton properties often experience surface water problems due to mixed soil profiles, clay-heavy ground in certain areas and rising rainfall levels. A well-designed soakaway safely manages excess rainwater, prevents standing water and reduces the risk of damp or structural issues. Our team designs Alton-specific systems based on infiltration rates, garden layout, roof runoff volume and local conditions.
We install a full range of solutions including crate soakaways, rubble soakaways, French drains, linear channels and ground drainage systems. If an existing soakaway has failed—as is common in older Alton properties—we conduct infiltration testing, CCTV inspection of feed pipes and ground surveys before recommending a replacement or upgrade.
In Alton, soakaway issues frequently arise from dense clay areas, ageing drainage infrastructure and rising stormwater volumes. Common problems we fix include:
Every soakaway installation or repair includes a full site assessment, infiltration test results and recommendations for long-term drainage stability.
Our structured installation process ensures your soakaway is correctly designed, positioned and built for maximum efficiency:
