Drainage Build Over Agreements in
Bletchley
Thames Water has to approve any Bletchley build that goes over or close to a public sewer, a genuine requirement that sits alongside, not instead of, planning permission. We handle the structural and design detail properly, and move quickly.
Get StartedThe Real Process Explained For Bletchley
Where a Bletchley project involves building over or within close proximity to a public sewer, Thames Water needs to formally approve it, a genuinely separate process from planning permission, running alongside it rather than replacing it.
A CCTV survey of the existing sewer is sometimes required as part of this in Bletchley, though not always, it depends on how well documented the sewer’s exact route and condition already are. We arrange one where it’s genuinely needed, not as a blanket extra.
We keep Bletchley clients clear on the distinction, Thames Water’s build over approval and planning permission are two separate, real requirements, and missing either causes genuine problems later.
