Taking land levels

[nelly55]

Without buying a self levelling laser ,how could you measure drain levels from manhole to outlet.

I rent one for about £50/day whenever I need one

The longest straight edge you can find, a level and a tape measure....?

 

[Dry Rot]

Buy an old obsolete quick set or dumpy level. Many a good tune played on an old fiddle and believe it or not, they used to do surveying before lasers were invented. For that £50 you'd pay for a day's hire I'm tempted to sell you mine except I still use it!

If it is not far a hose with water in it works well, I did nearly all my buildings like that.

Use a piece of clear hose filled with water.

Self levelling laser is one of my favourite investments - bought a cheapy to start off and then upgraded later. Easily paid for itself, and wouldn't be without it now. So handy to bring out just to check a level.

Critically it makes it a one person job, had mine nearly 15 years, a grade function would be min spec IMO.

Laser is quick, easy and very accurate, but clear hose can be used round corners (where there is no line of sight).
