Pricing
What soakaway installation costs, and what moves it
Ask for the price before we set off
We do not print a figure here, because a number written without seeing your ground would be a guess. For most jobs, ring us and we will give you the price, or our labour rate, before we set off. What moves it is the job in front of us: how much water the soakaway has to take, how well the ground drains, and how much digging the access allows.

Scott Green
I had blocked drain at my house and DC Drainage solutions unblocked quickly and efficiently. Great service highly recommended.
Cameron Doe
David come over to sort out a blocked waste pipe for us. He was great from start to finish and left the place spotless once work was complete. Would highly recommend and will definitely use again
Buster Marrow
We used this company to resolve a blockage in our drains and would definitely recommend them. Excellent service and communication throughout.
The things people ask before they book
Answered here, so nobody has to ask when we arrive.
Will you dig up my garden or drive?
A new soakaway does mean digging, so we would rather tell you where and how much before we start than after. On site we show you what has to be opened up, and nothing extra happens without your say-so.
Will I be left with a mess?
Every site is left cleaned, tidied and sanitised before we go.
What if the bill grows halfway through?
The price we agree before we start is the price you pay, unless you approve extra work. If we find more, we explain it and price it first, and you choose now or later.
Soakaway installation in Dorset, Hampshire & Wiltshire: questions we get asked

Can I get a price for a new soakaway before you come out?
For most jobs, yes. Ring us and we will give you the price, or our labour rate, before we set off. If we find something on site that needs more work, we tell you what it is and what it costs first, and you choose whether it happens now or later.

Soakaway crate installation Dorset: what does the work involve?
We look at the site, explain what a crate soakaway would involve there, and price it before we start. You then choose whether we fit it on the day or book it in. We use the correct method for the ground and the job, and we leave the site cleaned, tidied and sanitised.
Do I need a new soakaway, or will a soakaway repair do?
We diagnose before we quote, so we can tell you which. If a repair does the job, we will say so, and we will explain what we found before anything is priced.
How quickly can you come out?
We aim to be with you within 60 minutes. We would rather not guess how long the work itself will take before we have seen the site, and we will tell you once we have.
Money first, then the ground
Soakaway installation: the price first, then your ground
Before anything else, the money. Quotes are free, and for most jobs we give you the price, or our labour rate, before we set off. The price we agree is the price you pay, unless you approve extra work. Then the ground: a soakaway only works if the ground beneath it will take the water, and that varies from one garden to the next, so we look at the site and explain what a new soakaway needs there. Water reaches it from somewhere, typically roof downpipes or surface water drainage, so we look at that as well as the pit. You then decide whether we fit it now or book it in. Based in Ringwood, we fit soakaways across Dorset, Hampshire and Wiltshire.
- A price before we set off, for most jobs

Soakaway crates ready for the pitNew soakaway or soakaway repair? The honest difference
We diagnose before we quote, so if a soakaway repair does the job we will say so rather than sell you a new soakaway.
| New soakaway | Soakaway repair | |
|---|---|---|
| What it means | A new soakaway, built for the water it has to take | Putting right the soakaway you already have |
| When it suits | There is no soakaway, or the existing one is beyond saving | The existing one is sound but not draining as it should |
| Digging | A new pit is dug | Only as much as the fault needs |
| Who decides, and the price | You do, once we have explained what we found and agreed the price | You do, once we have explained what we found and agreed the price |

Crate soakaway installation Dorset, Hampshire and Wiltshire: how the ground decides
A soakaway is a buried chamber that holds water and lets it drain away into the ground, so it only does its job where the ground will take that water. That is why we diagnose on site before we quote. The ground, the access and the amount of water going in all differ from property to property, and they decide the size of the soakaway, how much digging it needs and whether it works as it should once it is in.
Crate soakaway installation is one way of building that chamber, and the method we recommend depends on the site. We tell you which we would use, and why, before we price it. That covers soakaway crates installation Dorset households ask us about, from the first phone call to the tidy-up.
Rainwater soakaway installation is one of the jobs where this matters most, because roof downpipes and surface water drainage can send a lot of water in at once, and it needs somewhere to go. We look at the drain leading to the soakaway as well as the pit itself, which is the part of soakaway drain installation people tend to overlook.
If you already have one that is not draining, a soakaway repair may be all it needs, and we will say so. Searching for soakaway installation near me? We are based in Ringwood and work across Dorset, Hampshire and Wiltshire. Ring us and ask for the price: for most jobs we can give it, or our labour rate, before we set off.
