Percolation Testing in Stoke-on-Trent

Percolation Tests provides BRE365 soakaway percolation testing and foul infiltration testing across Stoke-on-Trent, supporting planning applications throughout the Potteries area.

Ground conditions in Stoke-on-Trent

Stoke-on-Trent’s ground is heavily influenced by its industrial and mining history, sitting on the North Staffordshire coalfield with substantial made ground, colliery spoil, and marl clay across much of the city. This combination means percolation rates can be unpredictable and highly site-specific, and testing needs to account for potential historic ground disturbance in addition to the natural clay-dominant geology.

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 Hanley, Burslem, Tunstall, Longton, Fenton, and the wider Stoke-on-Trent and Newcastle-under-Lyme area. Available Monday to Friday.
