lawn drainage

[jonz]

Hi Im about to put in underground drainage to my lawn .I have plastic perforated pipe with and branches to join to the main run .my question is what should i cover the open ends of pipe with when buried............thanks

end caps (you may want to drill holes in these to) if you dont what ever you back fill with will eventually fill the pipe up causing subsidance (slight but noticable) and also defeat the object of having the drainage pipes in the first place

Hey .Breezer ..thanks......i was unaware that the pipe could be fitted with end caps as ive never seen them for sale all i got was pipe , and couplings on show .but ill have a look for them now i know....cheers
