Percolation Testing in Worcester

Percolation Tests provides BRE365 soakaway percolation testing and foul infiltration testing across Worcester and the surrounding Severn Vale.

Ground conditions in Worcester

Worcester sits in the Severn Vale on predominantly clay and marl soils, which typically drain slowly, combined with a floodplain setting that means a relatively high water table close to the river. This makes soakaway feasibility more limited in parts of the city than in higher, better-draining ground further out, and a properly conducted test is essential before any drainage design work begins.

What we test for

• BRE365 percolation testing for surface water soakaway design
• Foul effluent infiltration testing (Part H) for septic tanks and treatment plants
• Drainage strategy support for planning submissions

Coverage

We test across Worcester city, and the surrounding villages of Powick, Claines, and Hallow. Available Monday to Friday.
