Aco Channel Drainage Installation and Block Paving at Roundhouse Camden

Project Overview

FCDrainage.com was appointed to carry out external drainage and surfacing works at the iconic Roundhouse in Camden, London. The project involved the installation of a new Aco channel drainage system alongside full block paving works to improve surface water management and enhance the external appearance of the site.

Project Requirements

The client required a long-term, durable solution to address surface water issues and
upgrade the external hardstanding areas. The scope included:

Installation of a new Aco channel drainage system to control surface water run-off.
Full preparation and installation of high-quality block paving.
Integration of drainage and surfacing to ensure both functionality and aesthetics.
Completion of works in a live public venue with minimal disruption.

Our Solution

FCDrainage.com designed and delivered a tailored solution to meet both the functional
drainage requirements and the site’s visual standards:

Ground Preparation: The existing surface was excavated and properly graded to achieve the correct falls for efficient surface water flow.
Aco Channel Drain Installation: Linear Aco channels were installed to collect and direct surface water efficiently into the drainage system, preventing pooling and water damage.
Block Paving Installation: High-quality, durable block paving was laid to create a smooth, attractive and hard-wearing surface, suitable for pedestrian and light vehicle use.
Seamless Integration: The drainage channels were integrated neatly into the paving
layout, ensuring a level, accessible finish in keeping with the site’s high profile.
