Understanding Soakaways: Your Solution to Surface Water in Eccles

Simply put, a soakaway is an underground structure designed to collect excess rainwater from roofs, driveways, and other hard surfaces, allowing it to gradually soak back into the ground. This stops your garden from turning into a swamp or your foundations from getting waterlogged. For properties in Eccles, especially those not connected to a main surface water sewer, a soakaway isn't just a good idea – it's often a crucial part of an effective drainage system. Our experienced drainage engineers help you figure out if a new soakaway is the best fix for your water issues.

What Our Clients Say About Fast Drainage Northwest

"Kyle was prompt and efficient and a lovely guy. My cloakroom drain was blocked and he fixed in no time at all. Very reasonable price and would highly recommend his services."

Vivienne Smith

"Kyle was the first to reply to my add and phoned me letting me know what time he would arrive to sort out my problem. He was polite and efficient, cleaned up after he has unblocked my drain and did a brilliant job in less than half an hour. I am more than happy with the work."

Ian Williams

"We needed a new soil pipe fitting, and Kyle assessed the job and quoted that same day. He completed the work in a day and a half, and did a brilliant job. Minimal disruption, and everything cleared up afterwards. Oh, and a good price as well. Highly recommended!"

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our soakaway installation and drainage services in Wigan.

What exactly is a soakaway?

+

A soakaway is a pit filled with gravel or specialist plastic crates buried in the ground. It takes rainwater from your roof or driveway and lets it soak back into the earth slowly. This stops your garden from flooding and keeps excess water out of the main sewer system, which is better for the environment and your home.

How do I know if I need a new soakaway?

+

If you see big puddles on your lawn that won't go away, or if your gutters are overflowing because the water has nowhere to go, your old soakaway might be blocked or collapsed. If you’re building a new extension, the council might require you to install one to manage the extra water.

Does every garden work for a soakaway?

+

Not quite. The soil needs to be "porous," meaning water can travel through it easily. If you have very heavy clay soil, a soakaway might not work. We can perform a "perc test" to see how quickly water drains away before we start any work, making certain the solution fits your garden.

How long does it take to install?

+

Most domestic soakaway jobs are finished in a day or two. We dig the hole, install the crates or stone, connect the pipes, and then tidy everything up. We make sure the ground is reinstated properly so you can get back to enjoying your garden.

Will it stop my garden from flooding?

+

Yes, a well-designed soakaway is one of the best ways to manage surface water. It's a natural solution that keeps your property dry and protects your foundations from water damage. Our expert engineers will make sure it's sized correctly for the amount of water your roof or driveway collects.
