Polypipe Alternative Systems - Underground Drainage in the UK

If you are looking for an alternative brand of underground drainage to specify or install, then we have put a list together for your consideration.

Polypipe is one of the UK's largest and most well-known brands of underground drainage systems. They manufacture plastic drainage pipes, fittings and inspection chambers, providing a complete below-ground drainage system. Polypipe products have a good reputation for quality and have been used successfully on many projects in the UK's residential and commercial markets.

 

Why look for an alternative to Polypipe?

There are many reasons you might be looking for a different drainage system. There have recently been widespread price increases in the building materials market, which has led many construction companies to take a fresh look at their supply chains and reconsider the brands they might have used for many years. It might be the price; however, the service provided by traditional builders merchants leaves a lot to be desired. At Drainfast, we are an independent specialist merchant with an unrivalled service model.
