Drainage and Driveway

The clients live on a slope and had PVC drains in place that blocked up and were insufficient for the amount of water. We installed open concrete drains, with steel covers across the driving areas, open close to the retaining walls. We also installed black PVC U drains with covers around the edge of the parking areas. The whole area was graded gently, then large gravel was placed in the side drains and new gravel laid and rolled over the entire driveway.

Concreting

We will dig out and prepare sites for concreting.

Installing "Green Pipe"

The area suffered run off from the roadside and rather than the water running through the paddock a pipe was installed to take the water straight through to a dam.
