Land drainage is needed when soil becomes so saturated with water that it becomes unproductive and boggy. This article gives an overview of land drainage.
Without a drainage system to manage it, rainwater running off roofs and other non-porous surfaces can quickly cause flooding and waterlogging, particularly if the ground isn’t very permeable.
While water is essential for maintaining a garden, too much of it is most certainly a bad thing. In this blog post, we look at the possible causes of a poorly drained plot, the negative effects this can have and how the situation can be remedied.
Approximately one-third of our tap water in the UK comes from groundwater sources including wells, boreholes and springs; in some parts, this rises to as much as 80%.
Stormwater runoff from roofs, driveways and other impermeable surfaces must be diverted away from a property. Without some form of stormwater management, rain may cause flooding, saturate the ground to make it unstable and cause structural damage, damp walls and mould.
If you are installing a soakaway, septic tank or sewage treatment plant that will discharge water into the soil, you will need to carry out a soil percolation test.
Both systems work like temporary holding areas for large volumes of stormwater, buying time for the drainage system to cope with increased capacity during peak rainfall.
