What are Sustainable Drainage Reports?

Sustainable Drainage Reports are for setting out drainage principles with the aim of disposing of surface water in a sustainable manner. A SuDS report is used to support planning permission and is quickly becoming an integral part of planning submissions in an attempt to create more sustainable new developments. By providing an efficient SuDS report, you are more likely to meet your local authority requirements, therefore increasing the likelihood of your application being approved.​​​​

Why use Sustainable Drainage Systems?

​Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS), sometimes referred to as Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems, help to manage peak runoff after rainfall with the purpose of preventing flooding. Sustainable Drainage Systems work by mimicking natural drainage on undeveloped land. For land that has no development, the surface water would usually be absorbed into the soil. However, this is not always possible on developed land which is why SuDS are put in place.
