If you are planning a build in South Wales where the construction area is 100m² or larger, you are legally required to obtain Sustainable Drainage Systems (SAB) approval. 🔨💦
Without it, your project can run into major delays, unexpected design tweaks, or even compliance fines.
Here’s what you need to know:
✅ Why it exists: SAB/SuDS rules ensure rainwater run-off is managed sustainably to prevent local flooding and protect ecosystems.
✅ It affects layout: Permeable paving, rain gardens, and soakaways need to be designed into your plans from day one.
✅ We handle it all: At Atrium Construction, we integrate SAB drainage strategy directly into our design-to-delivery process, saving you time, stress, and extra consultant fees.
