I’ve spent the whole of this afternoon & evening watching videos on your excellent UA-cam channel. Not to sound patronising, but you are a quality tradesmen with top quality work. Thanks, Chris the Englishman in Northamptonshire.
Great video my friend. I think you’ve done a cracking job. I’m in the construction industry so I know just how tricky a job that was for one person. I’ve just subbed to your channel because off the great content. Thanks for sharing mate.

@@ericbarkerlandscapes3649 Sorry Thomas, this wan't me. It's an imposter ericbarkerlandscapes all small case is me, the imposter is Ed May from Kenilworth in Warwickshire. He is my resident Troll, by the way, Thank you for your appreciation. my dad was from Auckland ! Never got to go there, but it's on my wish list. Best regards, ERIC.
Please don't take any notice of 'Burks' Eric. There's always some 'Clever Dick' with a Gob who thinks he knows best. We who do jobs like you, know what it's like to contend with rain, tight spaces and all the rest. You do a great job Mate.
With every land drain run you should put a catch pitch inspection man hole, to filter out sediments prior to water going into sewer system. It will not be building regs compliant otherwise.
When the geo-textile has been rolled out, it can be pushed into the trench using a spade or other long handled tool. The top edges should remain above the trench.The gravel to be used for this interceptor drain is a 10mm clean angular gravel. This particular gravel is a crushed sandstone, although a 10mm pea-gravel could have been used. It's best to avoid limestone unless there is no viable alternative material available.A bedding layer of the gravel is placed in the base of the trench and spread along its length. This bed layer should be approximately 100mm in depth and levelled out to create an even bed for the pipe that will be installed next.flexible corrugated 100mm diameter pipe that is supplied in 25m coils. The pipe is extremely flexible and features a series of small perforations along its entire length and all around its circumference. Individual lengths of pipe can be joined together using the connector, one of which is usually attached to each 25m coil. This is a simple 'push' connector that uses a ridge on its inside to clip one of the many furrows on the connecting pipe. The pipe in unfurled into the trench and, as far as possible, positioned centrally. Due to the springy nature of this type of pipe, and its desire to return to a coil, it's often necessary to weight it down in place with a shovelful of the pipe bedding.Once the pipe is correctly positioned, the trench can be backfilled with the pipe bedding material. Eventually, the whole trench is backfilled with the pipe bedding gravel to a level approximately 150mm below the top. Gravel is largely self-compacting, and given the relatively narrow width of the trench, attempting to compact it using a vibrating plate is unlikely to be successful, but quite likely to make a complete mess of the trench edges. Trampling by the laying operatives will achieve adequate compaction at this stage.The geo-textile is then wrapped over the top of the pipe bed gravel, totally enclosing it and protecting it from contamination from the surrounding ground and, more importantly, preventing the gravel from becoming 'lost' to the earth on each side of the trench. The geo-textile should overlap by the full width of the trench. This provides double protection from trickle-down of the soil that will be used to cover the buried land drain. Any excess geo-textile can be folded over or trimmed as desired.The final step is to backfill the top of the trench with the topsoil that was salvaged earlier and then, if necessary, to replace the turf. There will, of courses, be some slight settlement of the trench over the following few weeks as it 'settles in', and it may be necessary to top-up the topsoil or re-bed the turf cover. Over the next few months, the ground will recover and the installation will become virtually undetectable.that's how it should been done WHAT EVER YOU DO ,DO NOT FOLLOW THE STEPS IN THIS VIDEO IT.S WRONG
I wonder if the building inspector has seen your work and as for everyone has their way of doing work yes that means doing it right and by the building regulations not the way you're doing it which is totally wrong from start to finish I see this too often people doing work that they don't even know anything about if you're going to take on this kind of work make sure you know what you doing or any other type of work and most of all follow the building regulations I always say honest true tradesmen always follow building regulations
Forgive me, but if you're going to connect a land drain into the sewerage system, should there not be a length of solid underground pipe leading away from the house so that the land drain doesn't dispense water into the foundations of the property? I would have thought an in-line gully should have been used at the downpipe and solvent welded to the existing pipe, with a 90 degree bend and a length of solid 110mm underground drainage pipe attached that leads out into the main trench into the garden?
