Reliable pumping solutions
Whether it’s foul water, surface runoff, or a combined system, we design and install pumping stations that move wastewater safely and efficiently - when gravity won’t do the job.
From compact, prefabricated lift stations to large-scale network systems, we take care of everything: sizing, specification, control systems and servicing. We’re also official Grundfos service agents, giving you access to high-performance, energy-efficient pump technology that’s built to last.
Why choose Drain It for pumping stations?
End-to-End System Design

Smart Monitoring & Control
We install intelligent control systems with alarms, level sensors and remote access for hassle-free management.
Minimal Disruption, Full Reinstatement
Our experienced crew installs with efficiency and care - reinstating all access, surfaces and finishes as needed.
How it works
Pumping stations (or lift stations) collect wastewater in an underground pit (wet well). When the water reaches a set level, the pumps activate - lifting the water through pressurised pipes to the next gravity-fed section or final discharge point.
Our team sizes your system, manages installation, fits control systems and ensures full compliance and safe operation.
Who it's for
Our pumping station solutions support:
- Homes and developments without direct gravity drainage
- Housing estates and commercial plots with level limitations
- Public sector infrastructure (schools, roads, community sites)
- Industrial sites requiring custom effluent management
- Upgrades or replacements of outdated pump systems
When it’s needed
You may require a pumping station when:
- Your site is at a lower elevation than the main sewer line
- There is no gravity drainage route available
- Surface water needs to be moved from roads, parking or hardstanding areas
- Effluent or sewage must be collected and pumped to treatment
- You’re developing land with difficult ground conditions
What to expect
- We assess your drainage layout, flow requirements and elevation
- A system is sized and designed to suit foul, surface or combined water needs
- We install a prefabricated or built-on-site wet well with pumps, pipework and controls
- The system is tested, commissioned and integrated with your drainage infrastructure
- Optional service plans and emergency support available
