Practical drainage solutions for driveways, patios, paths and garden areas, planned around levels, falls and where the water needs to go.
L Murphy Construction Ltd helps with drainage for driveways, patios, paths, gardens and other outdoor areas where water needs to be managed properly. Poor drainage can leave surfaces wet, uneven or difficult to use, so the aim is to understand where the water is going and create a practical route for it to drain away.
Good drainage is often planned alongside the wider surface work. Levels, falls, soil conditions, existing channels and nearby buildings all need to be considered before choosing the right solution.
Solving the cause, not just the puddle
Standing water is usually a sign that the surface, levels or drainage route needs attention. L Murphy looks at how water moves across the area so the work can deal with the cause rather than only covering the visible problem.
Built into the wider finish
Drainage works best when it is planned with the surrounding surfaces. Whether it connects with a driveway, patio, path or garden improvement, the goal is to make the drainage practical without making the finished area look awkward or unfinished.
