Building an Extension? Why a Build Over Survey is Key for Your Warrington Property

Planning an extension, conservatory, or even a new garden room at your home in Warrington or nearby? It's an exciting time, but there's a vital step many homeowners overlook: the Build Over Survey. If your planned build sits directly over or very close to a public sewer, you need official approval from your local water authority, which for us in the North West is United Utilities. This survey is not just a formality; it’s a crucial assessment that protects your new structure, the public sewer, and your long-term peace of mind. Avery Drainage Solutions specialises in these detailed inspections, helping you navigate the process smoothly and safely.

Why Choose Us?

Navigating United Utilities Requirements with Confidence

United Utilities has clear guidelines when it comes to building near their assets. Their main concern is ensuring access for future maintenance or repairs to the public sewer without damaging your new property. Without a proper Build Over Agreement, you could face significant issues down the line, including having to alter or even demolish parts of your new build if United Utilities needs access. Our Build Over Surveys provide the comprehensive report and evidence you need to show your plans are sound and that you’re taking all necessary precautions. We help you meet these critical requirements head-on, avoiding costly delays or problems in the future.

Who We Are

How We Conduct Your Precision Build Over Survey

When you choose Avery Drainage Solutions for your Build Over Survey, you’re getting a thorough, professional assessment. We use state-of-the-art CCTV drain camera technology to inspect the condition of the public sewer beneath or near your proposed build area. This involves inserting a high-definition camera into the pipework, allowing our experienced surveyors to capture clear video footage. We check for any existing issues like cracks, root ingress, blockages, or dislodged joints. Our team maps the exact location and depth of the sewer, providing precise measurements that are vital for your building plans. This detailed approach ensures no hidden surprises once construction begins.

What Our Comprehensive Build Over Report Gives You

After our on-site inspection, we put together a detailed, professional report for you. This isn't just a simple checklist; it's a comprehensive document, often presented in industry-standard Wincan format. It includes the full video footage from the CCTV survey, a site plan showing the sewer's location relative to your proposed build, and a written explanation of our findings. The report highlights the sewer's condition, identifies any pre-existing issues, and confirms its suitability for building over or near. This official document is what you’ll submit to United Utilities, providing them with all the technical information they need to approve your Build Over Agreement. It’s a key piece of your planning application and helps prove your property's integrity.
