Everything you always wanted to know about soakaway testing and groundwater monitoring*

05 Oct 2026

Everything you always wanted to know about soakaway testing and groundwater monitoring* (*but were afraid to ask).

This was the title of a recent lunchtime CPD presentation that Simon and Callum recently gave to a company of drainage and civil engineers. Whilst the pun in the title, taken from a Woody Allen film, might have been lost on many of the audience, its content certainly wasn’t. 

I am all for sharing what we know, particularly if it takes less than an hour, over lunch, and especially if it helps make all of our lives easier and to the benefit of others. Whilst standing up in front of a room and talking for around 40 minutes isn’t my idea of fun, the benefits are great and many, so we are happy to provide a similar talk to others, if anyone fancies it.    

Providing a pizza lunch is optional, but always helps with our availability!
