Planning Your Extension in Knutsford? Understanding Build Over Surveys

Thinking of extending your home or building a new property in Knutsford? It’s an exciting time! However, if your planned construction is within three metres of, or directly over, a public sewer, you’ll likely need a Build Over Agreement from your water authority, typically United Utilities in our area. This isn’t just a formality; it’s a crucial step to protect both your new investment and the essential drainage infrastructure serving your community. At Avery Drainage Solutions, we provide professional, detailed Build Over Surveys designed to help you navigate this requirement smoothly and confidently. We’re here to help you get your project off the ground without unexpected drainage issues.

Why Choose Us?

Why a Build Over Survey is Essential for Your Project

Building over or close to a public sewer carries potential risks, both for the sewer itself and for your new structure. Ground movement from construction could damage the pipe, leading to blockages, leaks, or even collapses, which would then affect multiple properties and could be incredibly disruptive. A Build Over Survey, carried out by experienced drainage surveyors like our team, offers United Utilities the assurance that your plans won’t compromise the integrity of their network. It's a vital part of protecting your property from future drainage issues and making sure your building work meets all necessary standards. Without this agreement, you could face delays, costly alterations, or even legal problems down the line. It's the sensible way to move forward.
