Water Engineering — Water Infrastructure & Management in East Sussex & Kent
Water engineering covers the design, construction, and management of water infrastructure — from water mains and service pipes to ponds, lakes, weirs, and drainage systems. As water engineering contractors based in Battle, East Sussex, we design and build water infrastructure for landowners, developers, and farmers across Kent and East Sussex. We hold EUSR accreditation for water utility work and own our own excavators and plant, so we handle the full process from excavation through to commissioning.
Whether you need a new water main connection, a pond or lake built, a weir constructed, or a complete drainage and water management system for a development site, we have the qualifications, plant, and experience to deliver. Our water engineering work is built to the standards of Southern Water, South East Water, the Environment Agency, and the Lead Local Flood Authorities for Kent and East Sussex.
When You Need Water Engineering
New developments need water infrastructure — water main connections, service pipes, surface water drainage, SuDS, and foul drainage. We're certified to carry out water utility installation to water authority standards, handling new connections, MDPE service pipe installation, meter fitting, and emergency repairs. We also use impact moling for trenchless water pipe installation under driveways and roads.
Ponds, lakes, and wetlands are water engineering projects in their own right. A new pond or lake needs correct design — the right size, depth, banks, lining, and inlet/outlet — and careful construction to hold water and last. We build ponds and lakes of all sizes, from garden wildlife ponds to estate lakes and irrigation reservoirs, using natural clay sealing where possible or synthetic liners where required.
Water management infrastructure — weirs, sluices, attenuation ponds, and drainage systems — controls water levels and flow across your land. We design and construct weirs and watercourse structures, install attenuation and SuDS systems, and build the drainage networks that keep land, property, and development sites dry and functional.
Our Water Engineering Services
We install water mains and service pipes to Southern Water and South East Water standards — new connections, MDPE pipe installation, meter fitting, and emergency burst pipe repairs. We use impact moling for trenchless installation under driveways and roads, minimising disruption. We're EUSR-accredited and certified for water utility work.
We design and construct ponds, lakes, and wetlands — excavating with our own plant, shaping banks, installing liners (natural clay, butyl, or HDPE), and fitting inlets, outlets, and overflow structures. We also carry out pond and lake restoration, desilting, and reed removal for existing waterbodies.
We build water management infrastructure — weirs, sluices, attenuation ponds, swales, and SuDS components — and install land drainage, French drains, soakaways, and surface water drainage systems. All water engineering work is carried out with our own plant. We're based in Battle, East Sussex and cover all of Kent and East Sussex. Call us on 07376 622637 for a free water engineering quote.
