Soakaways and Drainage Solutions by Coles Gutters and Roofing

At Coles Gutters and Roofing, we’re not just experts in keeping your roof watertight – we’re also specialists in managing the water once it leaves your roof. Our comprehensive soakaway and drainage solutions ensure that rainwater is efficiently directed away from your property, preventing potential damage and flooding issues.

What is a Soakaway?

A soakaway is an underground drainage system designed to manage surface water runoff. It consists of a large excavated hole filled with rubble, crates, or other porous materials that allow water to slowly drain into the surrounding soil. This eco-friendly solution helps reduce pressure on main drainage systems and prevents flooding around your property.
