SuDS Soakaway Design Backed by Reliable Testing Data

Planning a development or installing a new drainage system? Castledine Environmental provides trusted soakaway testing and percolation assessments to help you design effective surface water management systems. Our tests are essential for determining if your land is suitable for soakaways, septic tanks, or SuDS infrastructure.

We carry out infiltration tests in accordance with BRE Digest 365, which is the UK's recognised method for evaluating soil permeability and infiltration capacity. This is often a planning condition for developments in both urban and rural settings, especially where foul or surface water needs to be discharged safely and sustainably.

Our expert team visits your site, undertakes the testing, and delivers a full, easy-to-understand report with recommendations tailored to your project's drainage needs. If the site doesn't support a soakaway system, we can offer alternative drainage strategies to keep your project moving forward.

Castledine Environmental has supported self-builders, housing developers, architects, and commercial contractors throughout the UK with cost-effective and compliant soakaway testing solutions. We understand the importance of getting clear answers quickly when working to deadlines, and our friendly team is here to guide you every step of the way.

Whether you're at the pre-planning stage or finalising drainage design, we'll ensure your soakaway test is accurate, professional, and tailored to your project.
