The Park Edge project, near Doncaster, consists of 189 two-to-four bedroom detached, semi-detached and townhouse design homes. The development by Barratt Homes boasts picturesque surroundings, easy access to local amenities, and a thriving community with a family-friendly feel.
The Brief
With the major South Yorkshire development underway, Barratt Homes required a breadth of underground drainage and above ground drainage solutions.
It worked with plumbing contractor, Lakeside Plumbers, and Polypipe Building Products to deliver a wide range of high specification plastic plumbing fittings to manage water from ‘the roof to the sewer’ across the estate.
Our Solution
Within each house, a range of products were used to ensure that every home on the estate had modern, efficient and made-to-last plumbing throughout the building. These included PolyPlumb, PolySoil and Pro-Straight Plumbing and Heating pipe.
To provide the external drainage, waste water fittings and sewerage system for each home on the new estate, Barratt Homes specified the use of Polypipe’s extensive underground drainage product portfolio. Polypipe Building Products has the UK’s largest range of sewer pipes, fittings and inspection chambers for commercial and residential projects. The Polysewer pipes are available in diameters from 110mm up to 300mm and make installation faster due to the flexibility, strength and easy handling properties.
At Park Edge, a wide range of Polysewer pipes were installed, with the access to the system across the entire estate using Polypipe’s SFA7 Inspection Chambers, manhole covers and frames.
Results
Richard Eddy, Category Manager for Below Ground Drainage at Polypipe Building Products, commented:
“A project of this size and scope demonstrates the strength and technical excellence of the Polypipe product portfolio. By working closely with the developer and its assigned contractors, we were able to supply at volume a high specification system suitable for use at each stage of required water management. From rainwater systems to manage rainfall on the roof, to internal plumbing that keeps a house with many appliances working efficiently, to the systems that safely remove waste water from a housing plot into the main sewer system.
“Polypipe Building Products supports all aspects of building projects for the supply of water management solutions ranging from early technical advice through to on-site installation assistance with contractors.”
