Helping You Design Climate-Resilient Rainwater Management Systems
For developers and development agencies, international engineering and design consultancies, architects, Tier 1 contractors and asset owners and operators.
Capcon’s Rainwater Consulting service brings specialist rainwater expertise into a project at the earliest possible stage, rather than leaving rainwater as a package to resolve later in construction.
The right strategy might involve gravity or siphonic drainage, attenuation, SuDS, harvesting, or a combination of these, informed by the risk and design analysis for each project.
Why Engage Early
Bringing rainwater and stormwater expertise into a project at site selection or concept stage, rather than at package procurement, provides risk mitigation throughout the programme and after:
Where We Fit Into Your Project
Until recently, the rainwater drainage package was mainly left for the main contractor to tackle later in the construction phase. This approach can have more serious consequences in complex or large-scale building designs. Engaging with a rainwater drainage design specialist early in the design process will reduce overall costs and coordination risks.
