Yep ill make sure I put my work around it Saturday would be best I'm hoping with enough man power we can get it sorted in day for you but need to be there eairly so evaluate what needs doing and go get materials.
Dave just re looked at the pictures again I notice you have a soil pipe at the side of the house and also waste pipes from sink etc I take it them pipes join it the soil Pipe now I've seen it it's open a great place to run the arco drains into which means we won't have to cut across the drive to the man hole all your roof top water will now also flow into that.

FYI this is what the Timberwise report from last September said..
Edit - in hindsight it is probably unwise to share on a public forum. If you want a copy of their report then I can forward it .

I can't make that date unfortunately but don't change it if suitable for everyone else as I was merely offering hands and tea

If anyone wanted to come on Friday evening then that would also be fine.

I'll check the calendar when I get in, but should be fine.
Looks like it's a date then Dave
Typically it's when I'm due to start working again! I've amassed some leave though so I'll pop some leave in tomorrow and should be good to go also!:-)

Enough to make running aco drainage up the drive impractical. Aco drains are viable if we empty onto the driveway apron near the road. That is wy I was looking at the terminals in post #47. If we can embed one of those into the apron then we can use the natural slope.
Otherwise the only option is to cut the channel - knock out an amount of material - tank the foundations - and fill with small stones. I still think this is necessary even if we install aco drains.
The timberwise report I commissioned also recommended repositioning the soak away which is at the far corner (near the gas box). Rather than me drip feeding the info - I have copied out the bulk of what was discussed.
So basically improving the drainage from the front is my biggest concern.Originally Posted by Timberwise report Sept 2014

My thought was to recess the Aco into the drive around the side of the house so you could still get the fall, my only concern would be with running into the soil stack is unless some type of P trap wasx put in place , the soil stack would vent onto the Aco, leading to unpleasant smells. I don't think it's viable for the Aco to drain onto the apron because of the height of them, I know of none that taper down to practically zero height.
Hmm...
Prob have to put a trap either side of the soil pipe too somehow.
Either that or route the Aco around the soil pipe?
