Drainage, SuDS & aeration

Wetter winters are drowning lawns and writing off pitches. We relieve the compaction that causes most of it, maintain the drainage and SuDS features you already have — and where a site needs a full drainage scheme, we design and deliver it with specialist install partners.

What's included

From soggy to usable — in the right order.

Most waterlogging is compaction, not plumbing. We start with the ground, and only recommend a scheme when the ground genuinely needs one.

Aeration & verti-draining

Deep decompaction that restores infiltration on lawns and high-traffic turf — often the whole answer.

Drainage-run maintenance

Existing piped and slit systems kept working — tops sanded, outfalls and silt traps clear.

SuDS feature upkeep

Basins, swales and rain gardens maintained as the drainage assets they are, not just planting.

Wet-area renovation

Worn, waterlogged areas repaired, overseeded and brought back into use.

Drainage schemes, scoped honestly

Where a full piped or sand-slit system is the answer, we design and deliver it with specialist install partners — one point of contact, ours.

How it runs

Diagnose first. Dig last.

Site & soil assessment

We find out why it's wet — compaction, capping, failed runs or genuine lack of drainage.

The proportionate fix

A decompaction programme where that solves it; a scheme proposal only where it won't.

Delivered & protected

Works delivered — with specialist partners on full installs — then a maintenance programme that protects the investment.

Evidenced & reported

Photo-reported like everything we do, so you can see the ground recover.

Who it's for

Anywhere water is winning.

School pitches lost to winter, later-living lawns that squelch, communal greens residents avoid, and SuDS features nobody's been maintaining.

The pitch was unusable from November to March. A season of decompaction and drainage-run work later, we lost two fixtures all winter.

Common questions

Drainage, answered plainly.

Do we need a full drainage system?
Usually not. Most waterlogging on lawns and pitches is compaction — a decompaction and aeration programme restores infiltration at a fraction of the cost. We assess first and only propose a piped or sand-slit scheme where the ground genuinely needs one.
Who installs full drainage schemes?
We design and deliver them with established specialist installation partners, under our management — you deal with one named Avery contact, and we hold the maintenance programme that protects the installation afterwards.
When is drainage work done?
Decompaction and aeration run through autumn and spring windows; installation schemes are planned for drier months so the ground recovers fast. Either way it's programmed around your site's use.
