Soakaway Testing for SuDS Design and Planning
We provide fully compliant soakaway (infiltration) testing in accordance with BRE 365 to support sustainable drainage system (SuDS) design and planning applications. Our experienced team undertakes percolation testing to assess the infiltration capacity of the ground to allow others to determine the feasibility and sizing of soakaways or other infiltration-based drainage solutions.
Accurate Infiltration Testing and Reporting to BRE 365 Standards
Testing is carried out using trial pits at proposed soakaway locations, typically to a depth of 1–2 metres, and filled with water to simulate storm conditions. Results are analysed to calculate infiltration rates and inform drainage design, ensuring compliance with planning and building regulations.Â
All works are conducted to the standards set out in BRE Digest 365, with clear, professional reporting suitable for submission to local authorities, drainage engineers, and consultants.Â
Whether for a single dwelling or a larger development, we deliver reliable, accurate results and practical advice helping you to integrate effective surface water management into your project.
