Hemel Hempstead Driveway Drainage Solutions

By replacing the natural ground with an impermeable surface (such as a tarmac or block paving driveway), large amounts of rain water sometimes have nowhere to go, increasing the risk of flooding. If the driveway can't be built at an angle to enable the water to run into the road drainage system you may find your drive collects puddles of water, causing numerous problems, including flooding in extreme cases.

We ensure your new Hemel Hempstead driveway drainage has the correct foundation in place to ensure water is redirected away from the property. In some cases we achieve this by constructing the driveway to slope in a specific way.

Driveway & Patio Drain Solutions

For some properties, especially those below street level, it’s difficult to solve the drainage problem with correct driveway placement and the slope alone. Trench drains are a popular solution for this and can be installed where the driveway meets the garage or end of the property. Trench Drains are long and narrow and usually run the entire width of the driveway.

They covered by a grate (available in a range of colours and materials to suit your driveway) to keep it free of debris that could clog the drainage pipe. Decorative grates are available for trench drains that can be used as a unique design element.
