Moving a drain

3 December 2012

I want to extend my house but there’s a drain at the bottom of the garden. Is it possible to move it by 1.5m?

Answers

You can divert the drain around your extension, or build over it if there are no manholes. You would need to put a new manhole at the flow end of the extension. If you divert the drain, connect it downstream, lay the new drain and make the final diversion connection last.
