You can find out more about SuDS and what to know for SuDS assessments, but providing the most feasible and cost-effective solutions is critical to getting your project underway efficiently.
Whether for small residential sites requiring percolation tests and soakaway design, or larger sites where a management train approach may be needed, a transparent SuDS report and comprehensive SuDS design are essential.
The use of SuDS are now a requirement across the UK, and the majority of local plans and strategies include a requirement for SuDS. Therefore it is unlikely that planning approval will be granted, or in some circumstances the discharge of conditions relating to surface water will not be agreed, until the proposals include an appropriate SuDS scheme.
We have a proven track record in providing calculations and detail design drawings; working with clients and liaising with relevant authorities to ensure the most appropriate solutions are employed. Our SuDS reports can include as much, or as little of the following as is required by the relevant local authority:
Flood Risk Assessment, assessing the flood risk from all sources, and providing mitigation measures where necessary (this is required to accompany the planning applications for all major developments within a flood zone 1)
Our experts also have extensive experience in designing:
