Percolation Testing in Chester

Percolation Tests carries out BRE365 soakaway percolation testing and foul infiltration testing across Chester and the surrounding Cheshire area.

Ground conditions in Chester

Chester sits on sandstone bedrock along the River Dee, generally offering reasonable percolation, though the low-lying floodplain areas near the river and the glacial clay found further out across the Cheshire Plain can drain considerably more slowly. As a historic city with centuries of development, made ground is also a common factor on many sites.

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 Chester city, Tarporley, Christleton, and the surrounding Cheshire villages. Available Monday to Friday.
