Coffee Drive Thru
The development of a coffee drive-thru in Cardiff needed to comply with the Sustainable Drainage System (SuDS) Approval Body (SAB) requirements.
Solar Panel Carport at Innovation House
Innovation House in Caldicot undertook a project to construct a solar panel carport within the existing office development premises. As part of this initiative, there was a need to address surface water runoff management while ensuring compliance with Monmouthshire County Council's SuDS Approval Body (SAB) requirements.
Surrey County Council
The Flood and Climate Resilience team identified a need to reduce downstream flood risk by managing roof water runoff and slowing its flow into surrounding sewer systems. Beyond flood mitigation, the project aimed to add recreational value and encourage employee engagement through innovative design and planting.

By addressing drainage challenges at Mountfield Road, the installation not only resolved local sewer capacity problems but also contributed to compliance with regulatory requirements, delivering a successful outcome for all stakeholders.
Leadon Court, Cwmbran
Due to the constrained nature of the site, innovative and efficient sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) were necessary to manage surface water while maximising the space available for housing and pedestrian access.
Southern Water IOW Pathfinder Project
In residential areas prone to flooding across Southern Water’s service region, there was a critical need for retrofitted drainage solutions to address excess surface water runoff, which contributed to combined sewer overflow events during heavy rainfall.
