Drainage Build Over Agreements in
Chandler’s Ford
A Chandler’s Ford extension crossing a public sewer route needs sign-off from Southern Water before work starts. It’s a real, separate approval, and getting the detail right the first time is what keeps the whole thing fast.
Get StartedWhat Southern Water Actually Needs To See For Chandler’s Ford
Getting Southern Water’s approval for a Chandler’s Ford build over agreement means submitting real structural detail, not just a general description, showing exactly how the foundation design accounts for the sewer’s presence.
For some Chandler’s Ford projects a CCTV survey forms part of that submission, for others it doesn’t, Southern Water’s requirement depends on the individual site. We’re upfront about which applies before any work starts.
