Given that a third of all build costs are in the ground works, making the right product choices can help to save time and money. Choosing the right drainage products can contribute to this Buying a drainage product may seem a straightforward decision, but there are many different designs and materials available, so choosing the right one is imperative. Savings can be made both at the outset of the project and in the long-term. A durable, high performance drainage product, for example, one which is low maintenance such as a linear channel system or gully grating that can prevent leaf and debris ingress or provide easy access, helps to reduce future costs associated with blockages. Product installation contributes to much of the cost when laying a network of drains, Where its application allows, look for drainage products that are appropriate for shallow excavations, thereby saving money on both ground work costs and construction/building time. Drainage systems have come a long way with technical improvements in hinges and connections. Spring lock connection, for example, will enable several channel lengths to be installed at the same time for faster levelling. Linear drainage systems also offer major advantages over traditional point drainage systems including being more accessible along the whole length of the system, improved water transfer, quicker and cheaper installation and easier system design Similarly, material choices, the quality of manufacture, reliability and longevity in performance also need to be considered. Materials which are inherently lighter, strong and robust, such as polymer concrete when compared to traditional concrete products, are resistant to the effects of freeze thaw and de-icing salts, providing a durable, high performance product. One of the most important factors, however, to finding the right drainage product, is to find the right supplier. Essentials suppliers need to possess are credentials such as an ISO quality system for their product manufacture, a full range, technical expertise and continuity of supply. With all these boxes ticked you have piece of mind. Clark-Drain is a highly successful family-run drainage company based in Cambridgeshire.
