I am looking for some pipe to put in a border to drain water into a soak. Do I need perforated and can 5cm diameter do the job as I want to plant over the top? If not, what diameter and how much.
Also, where would I purchase them as most ads seem to be for industrial use.
Your Local Builders Merchants should be able to supply you with some suitable pipe or try a search for 'pipes' under Merchants and Wholesalers, we may have some listed in your area.
It may not be necessary to have perforated pipe,however, soakaways need to be located a certain distance away from any building and therefore I would strongly advise you to contact your Local Authority Building Control team to discuss your project. Contact details can be found under Construction Resources above.
Kind regards
