Why Choose Us?

Understanding Your Build Over Agreement with United Utilities

When you plan to build near or over a public sewer, your local water authority – which for Poynton and much of the North West is United Utilities – requires a formal agreement. This 'Build Over Agreement' is in place to protect the integrity of their drainage assets and ensure they maintain access for any necessary repairs or maintenance. To secure this agreement, United Utilities will often ask for a pre-build CCTV drain survey, and sometimes a post-build survey too. Our expert team understands these requirements inside out, providing the specific reports and evidence you need to move your project forward smoothly.

Who We Are

What Exactly is a Build Over Drain Survey? Our Expert Approach

A Build Over Drain Survey is a specialised CCTV drain inspection designed to assess the condition of the public sewer before any construction begins. We use advanced camera technology – robust crawler cameras and flexible push-rod cameras – to navigate your drainage system, capturing high-definition video footage from inside the pipes. Our experienced surveyors meticulously examine the entire length of the sewer, identifying any pre-existing issues such as cracks, root ingress, displaced joints, or blockages. This comprehensive inspection ensures that you and United Utilities have a clear picture of the sewer's condition before construction could potentially impact it.

Protecting Your Property: Why a Thorough Survey Matters in Poynton

Ignoring the need for a Build Over Survey or cutting corners can lead to significant problems. Imagine building your dream extension, only for a pre-existing fault in the sewer to worsen, causing a collapse or blockage beneath your new structure. The disruption, cost, and stress of remedial work would be immense. A professional drain survey helps you avoid these headaches. It protects your investment, ensures compliance with building regulations, and crucially, prevents you from being held responsible for damage to public sewers that was already there. We ensure your project starts on solid ground.
