Drainage

Since the 17th century drainage pipes have been installed with the purpose of removing excess water from farm land and this process has continued up to the present day. Drainage greatly improves yields and once installed a scheme can last a life time or more. Costs can be controlled by varying the spacing’s of the lateral drains. Complimentary Drains can be installed to reinforce existing Drainage schemes. If elderly drains are struggling to cope, new Laterals can strengthen the area and connect to the existing scheme to reduce the costs. Farm Services Ltd. offers land owners expertise, experience and technology.

Complimentary Drains can be added to reinforce existing schemes and solve newly developed wet spots. Elderly drainage systems were often installed without permeable fill and in heavy soils can struggle to cope with today’s increasing demands. New Laterals strengthen the drainage system and by connecting to the existing scheme reduce costs. We are used to working in the wet and our machines are able to lay drains accurately regardless of the conditions.
