Essex Garden Slotted Drain System

We created a clean, modern low-maintenance patio using Himalayan white porcelain pavers, finished with an external grout to perfectly complement the slabs. A small angled planter has been added to soften the look — once the flowers are in, this space will really come to life 
To finish, we installed a sleek slotted drain system along the house for both style and function.
Big thanks to Lower Barn Farm for supplying the pavers, and Chandler Material Supplies for the aggregates and drainage materials


A slotted drain system is an efficient and discreet way to manage surface water in gardens and outdoor spaces. It consists of a narrow, linear opening (the “slot”) at ground level connected to an underground channel (or a pipe) that carries away any excess rainwater. This is particularly useful in gardens that have problems with being waterlogged by rain.

In gardens, slotted drains can help prevent puddles, soil erosion, and flooding around patios, driveways and lawns. They blend seamlessly into landscaping without disrupting the look of the garden. They can be installed along pathways, the edges of decking, or near garden buildings to collect excess runoff efficiently.
