We cover the wider East of England area, including Bedfordshire.

We install attenuation systems in Dunstable and across Bedfordshire for redevelopment sites where existing drainage constraints force on-site storage and controlled discharge. This scope is typically required where discharge rates are capped and surface water storage has to be delivered as part of the groundworks package. Delivery usually depends on sequencing excavation, bedding and connections so the system is ready before surfacing and final levels are locked in.

Most enquiries for this involve reducing uncertainty before committing to project delivery.
