Building an Extension in Birkenhead? You Likely Need a Build Over Drain Survey

Planning an extension, conservatory, or even a new garden room on your Birkenhead property? It's an exciting time, but there's a crucial step many homeowners overlook: assessing how your new build interacts with public sewers. If your proposed construction is over or very close to a public drainage system, your local water authority, such as United Utilities, will almost certainly require a 'Build Over Survey'. Ignoring this can lead to serious issues down the line, including costly delays, fines, or even having to remove your new structure. At Avery Drainage Solutions, we provide professional, thorough Build Over Surveys specifically for properties in Birkenhead and across Merseyside, helping your project proceed smoothly and compliantly.

What Exactly is a Build Over Drain Survey?

A Build Over Survey is a specialist CCTV drain inspection designed to evaluate the condition and precise location of public sewers and drains that might be impacted by your construction project. Before any groundwork begins, our expert team uses advanced camera technology to inspect the pipework. This survey identifies any existing defects, like cracks, blockages, or tree root ingress, and assesses the pipe's overall structural integrity. We then compare the drain's position to your proposed building plans. It’s a vital way to get approval from the water authority, give you peace of mind, and protect you from potential liabilities should the sewer ever need accessing for repairs after your build is complete.
