Building an Extension in Northwich? Your Essential Build Over Survey

Planning to extend your home or add a conservatory in Northwich? It's an exciting time, but there's a crucial step many homeowners overlook: the Build Over Survey. If your proposed building work sits directly on or very close to a public sewer, you'll need a formal Build Over Agreement from your local water authority, which for us here in Cheshire and the North West, is usually United Utilities. Without this, you risk significant issues down the line, from legal complications to potential damage to your new structure or the drainage system itself. We are your local specialists, helping property owners across Northwich navigate this vital process with ease.

Why Choose Us?

Why Your New Extension Needs a Build Over Survey

Imagine investing time and money into a beautiful new extension, only to discover it’s built over a public sewer line without permission. This can lead to serious and costly problems. An undetected leak could undermine your foundations, or crucial access for maintenance could be blocked. Ultimately, United Utilities could even demand you remove the offending structure at your own expense. A professional Build Over Survey completely eliminates this risk. It’s an essential part of your planning application, ensuring your project complies with regulations and protects your investment, giving you total peace of mind for your new property development.
