About Drainage Engineers
Drainage engineers design surface water and foul drainage systems for developments, ensuring compliance with planning requirements and adoption standards. They prepare drainage strategies, SuDS (Sustainable Drainage Systems) designs, and flood risk assessments that councils and Lead Local Flood Authorities require. Their work covers surface water attenuation, below-ground drainage networks, permeable paving, swales, detention basins, and Section 104/106 adoption agreements with water companies. For most major developments, a drainage strategy is a validation requirement. The shift towards sustainable drainage means councils increasingly require SuDS as a condition of planning permission, making drainage engineering expertise essential from the earliest stages of a project.
