Drainage services

With a reputation built on delivering exceptional quality drainage solutions on time and to budget for clients in the Nelson Tasman region, the team at Chethams & Co Drainlaying can help from the early stages of planning right through to installation.

We can supply and install sewer and stormwater drains, primary and secondary wastewater treatment systems and any septic tanks or water tanks your property may require. We can also assist with the repair, renewal or replacement of blocked or broken drains and provide solutions for flooding.

Drainage planning

Whether you’re a homeowner looking for a cost-effective and functional drainage system for your rural property, or a commercial developer needing sewer and stormwater options for a new project, we’re here to help. We can meet with you on-site to discuss your needs, offer valuable and workable solutions, and connect you with the right people to turn your ‘pipe dreams’ into reality.

Sewer and stormwater

Our team specialise in the installation of sewer and stormwater drains for residential, rural and commercial properties of all sizes. We facilitate the disposal and management of sewer and stormwater runoff through connections to the public mains, retention and detention tanks, soakpits, rainwater harvesting solutions, and the installation of channel drains, sumps and subsoil drains to prevent flooding in low lying areas.

Wastewater

We know our sh*t. With strong product knowledge of trusted brands and years of experience in the on-site disposal of effluent, we can recommend, supply, install, extend and renew primary and secondary wastewater treatment systems that meet council regulations and cater to your needs. From standard septic tanks to complex aerated systems, pump stations, effluent disposal beds, dripper line fields, greywater recycling, grease and oil interceptor traps and everything in between, we’ve got all of your wastewater needs covered.

Water solutions

Rainwater harvesting is a sustainable way to meet your water needs, and the collection of potable and safe drinking water alleviates pressure on the main supply during water restrictions, ensuring you’re never caught short. An above or below ground water tank enables you to collect, store and use rainwater for on-site irrigation, drinking, firefighting and more. We can assist with the supply and install of stormwater drains, retention or detention tanks, first flush diverters, pump stations, sump pumps, firefighting couplings and water monitoring systems.

Repairs and maintenance

Old clay earthenware pipes, tree roots, landscaping mishaps and incorrect waste disposal are common culprits of most drainage disasters. Whether you have surface flooding causing damage to your home and garden, a blocked drain, a broken pipe or a suspicious leak, our team can quickly identify the ‘root’ cause of the problem and offer you a solution to repair or replace. *Please note we don’t currently offer a 24/7 emergency service for blocked drains.

Excavation

With a modern fleet of Kobelco diggers ranging in size from 0.8t-3.5t and operators with extensive excavation experience, we have the tools and the know-how to complete even the most complicated earthworks projects. We can provide a range of earthworks services, from site clearing and preparation, right through to cable trenching for underground power, backfilling and the cartage of spoil from site. We also offer digger hire services (subject to availability).
