Local Drainage Knowledge - Why It Matters in Beltring
The nature of drainage problems in Beltring is directly influenced by local ground conditions and the age of local properties. Kent's geology varies significantly across the county - with heavy clay soils across the Low Weald, chalk on the North Downs, and river alluvium in the Medway Valley. A good deal of the ground around Beltring is clay-influenced subsoil, which expands in wet weather and shrinks in dry. Add the area's mature tree cover, and the conditions that cause persistent root ingress and pipe joint displacement are in place.
Tom and the Smarter Drainage engineers know Beltring and Kent drainage well. As well as drainage, we carry out groundworks - concrete bases, patios, excavations, and fencing - which means that when a drain repair requires excavation, we can reinstate the surface properly afterwards. Using one contractor for drainage and groundworks saves time and money compared to managing separate drainage and groundworks contractors.
