DT Groundworks are specialists in large residential drainage projects. From single homes to housing developments, we design and install durable residential drainage systems that protect properties from flooding, damp, and surface water problems. With over 40 years of experience, we’re trusted by homeowners, developers, and contractors across Leeds, Bradford, Huddersfield, Halifax, and Wakefield.
Why Residential Drainage Matters
Every property needs a safe, effective way to move water away from buildings and gardens. Without it, homes can suffer from damp foundations, flooded lawns, or failing soakaways. Our team provides tailored drainage systems for residential buildings, giving long-term protection against these issues. Whether you’re planning a new build or solving existing drainage problems, we’ll recommend and install the right system for your site.
Our Approach to Large Drainage Projects
We handle everything from initial survey to final installation. This includes designing layouts for new developments, installing storm water drainage systems, and upgrading older drainage networks. For many clients, our role is also advisory — acting as a residential drainage consultant to identify problems, provide CCTV inspections, and prepare reports for insurance or compliance.
If you’re experiencing issues such as pooling water in the garden, damp walls, or overflowing soakaways, our experienced engineers can find and fix the cause quickly. For larger residential projects, we bring in excavation equipment and teams capable of managing drainage across multiple plots.

Most importantly, we understand the local ground conditions across West Yorkshire — giving us an edge when planning effective solutions.
