Detention Tank Installation Across the North West

Detention tanks play a crucial role in controlling stormwater runoff, reducing flood risks and protecting property foundations. At Basetec, we specialise in detention tank installation across the North West, providing effective surface water management solutions for homes, commercial developments and infrastructure projects. Our detention tanks store stormwater temporarily, controlling runoff rates and preventing flooding, waterlogging and environmental damage.

Whether you need a detention tank as part of a new build, an extension, or a commercial development, our team delivers tailored solutions designed to meet building regulations, integrate with your existing drainage system and provide long-term, low-maintenance performance.

Why You Need a Detention Tank

A professionally installed detention tank offers numerous benefits:

• Controls surface water runoff to reduce flood risk
• Protects property foundations and surrounding land from water damage
• Integrates with existing drainage systems, soakaways and sustainable urban drainage solutions (SuDS)
• Provides a low-maintenance, long-lasting water management solution
• Supports compliance with building regulations and environmental standards

   

Investing in expert detention tank installation ensures your property remains safe, dry and compliant.
