The work was to make a sewer connection to one of our buildings. AFS were patient, helpful and professional throughout. Special thanks to Dan Ford and Steve for an excellent job.
We design, install and repair high-performance soakaway systems throughout Surrey. With diverse ground types ranging from the fast-draining Bagshot sands around Camberley and Lightwater to the dense London Clay formations in Woking and Epsom, Surrey requires carefully engineered stormwater solutions. Our specialists install crate soakaways, rubble soakaways, French drains and full surface-water systems built to prevent flooding, eliminate standing water and manage stormwater runoff for homes, landlords, commercial sites and rural estates.

Emergency Services & Enquiries
Surrey’s geology is one of the most varied in the South East. The county includes chalk downs (Guildford, Dorking, Caterham), fast-draining sandy soils (Camberley, Lightwater, Bagshot), clay-heavy areas (Woking, Epsom, Horley) and mixed greensand belts (Haslemere, Godalming). These variations make soakaway performance highly dependent on correct design and soil assessment. We tailor every system to the property, ensuring long-term stormwater control and preventing repeat flooding issues.
We install crate soakaways, rubble soakaways, linear drainage channels, French drains, attenuation tanks and full surface-water networks. For failed systems, our engineers carry out CCTV inspections, infiltration testing, pipe tracing and ground diagnostics to identify the root cause before designing a suitable replacement system.
Soakaway problems across Surrey often develop due to clay-heavy soil layers, undersized soakaway pits, old drainage systems, blocked feed pipes or increasingly heavy rainfall. We regularly fix issues such as:
Every soakaway installation includes infiltration tests, capacity calculations and full documentation tailored to Surrey’s specific ground conditions.
Our structured soakaway installation process ensures every Surrey system is engineered for long-term flood prevention and efficient stormwater management:
Every system includes full documentation, drainage capacity figures and maintenance guidelines tailored to Surrey’s soil behaviour.
