I am plumber who is assking you gardeners for advice here!
Installing land drains in my back garden as it is clay soil.
i have removed all my top soil and just about ready to dig trenches for land drains. The garden is 7m x 8m and slopes towards my house( so unable to dig soakaway) Looking for advice :
How to calculate what mm of pipe i need?
How far apart do i need to place the drains?
Only place that i think i can discard the water into would be my rain water underground drainage (which i know isnt ideal)
Does anyone know if there are good filters that could make this possible and prevent blockages?
