If your garden stays boggy after rain or water runs towards the house, we can help with practical drainage upgrades tailored to Eden Park. We regularly work around BR3, including routes near Eden Park station and the edges of Kelsey Park. Our team installs French drains, soakaways, land drains and channel drains to move water safely away. Expect clean workmanship, minimal disruption and clear advice from the first visit.
Eden Park’s quiet residential streets include plenty of 1930s semis, detached houses and Edwardian properties, often with mature planting and older drainage runs. These homes can suffer from compacted ground, tired soakaways or poorly directed gutter discharge. We also support nearby areas such as Beckenham, West Wickham and Elmers End where driveways and patios can create extra surface run-off. Our drainage designs take into account levels, boundaries and how your garden is used day to day.
We start with a site assessment and, where needed, CCTV surveys to locate blockages, breaks or misconnected pipework. You’ll receive a straightforward plan covering falls, outlet points and the most suitable system—surface drainage, land drains, channel drains or gutter drainage upgrades. We protect lawns and borders, keep spoil controlled, and leave everything tidy on completion. Fine Landscaping backs workmanship with a 10-year warranty for long-term peace of mind.
As drainage contractors in London Borough of Bromley, we’re used to access constraints on residential roads and the need for considerate parking and deliveries. Gardens around Eden Park often have mature trees and older pipe routes, so we plan runs carefully to avoid roots and services. We also factor in driveway levels common to 1930s semis and detached homes, ensuring surface water is captured before it reaches walls or garages. Where required, we align designs with local drainage expectations and safe discharge options.

Costs vary with access, depth, pipe runs and where water can discharge. As a guide, small surface drainage or channel drain sections often start from £600–£1,500. French drains are commonly £1,500–£4,000 depending on length and reinstatement. New soakaways typically range £2,000–£6,000, especially if excavation is deeper or space is tight in BR3 gardens. We provide a site-specific quote after assessment.
Many Eden Park drainage jobs take 1–3 days, such as installing a short French drain run or adding channel drains to a driveway. Larger schemes—new soakaways, multiple gullies, or combined land drain networks—often take 3–7 days. Timescales depend on ground conditions, depth, how much paving or turf must be lifted and reinstated, and whether a CCTV survey reveals additional repairs. We’ll confirm a schedule before work starts.
Most garden drainage improvements, including French drains, land drains and soakaways, are usually permitted development and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, working near boundaries, affecting a public sewer, or the property is listed. Some driveway drainage changes may need extra care to ensure water drains to a permeable area on your land. We’ll advise and check requirements before installation.
Yes. Our drainage installations come with a 10-year workmanship warranty, covering defects arising from installation faults on the systems we fit (such as pipework connections, falls and bedding). It doesn’t cover damage caused by third-party works, extreme ground movement, or blockages from misuse (for example, building debris or inappropriate waste). We also recommend periodic checks of gullies and gutters to keep everything performing as designed.
We design systems to suit your garden layout and finish requirements. Popular options include gravel-filled French drains with perforated pipe, modular soakaway crates wrapped in geotextile, channel drains in polymer concrete or uPVC with discreet grates, and upgraded gutter drainage to new underground pipe runs. We can also add rodding points and silt traps for easier maintenance. After assessing levels and soil, we’ll recommend the most effective, tidy-looking solution.
