The challenge
What we were asked to solve
A new-build plot in Leyland suffered from poor falls and regular waterlogging — the garden was effectively out of use after wet weather.
Our approach
How we delivered it
We combined linear drains, multiple soakaways and full re-grading so water moved away from the property along designed falls.
Scope
What we installed
- Linear drains
- Multiple soakaways
- Full re-grading
- Usable lawn
The result
Outcome for the homeowner
A garden that performs in Lancashire weather — dry usable areas and a drainage system engineered for the long term.
