What Southern Water Actually Needs To See For Titchfield

Southern Water treats build over approval for Titchfield as a genuine technical review, focused on foundation design and how the proposed structure interacts with the sewer beneath or beside it. This sits entirely separately from your Titchfield planning application.

Whether a CCTV inspection’s needed for a Titchfield project depends on the specifics, sometimes the sewer’s route and condition are already well established, sometimes Southern Water wants it confirmed first. We arrange it honestly, only where it’s actually required.

This approval runs alongside your Titchfield planning permission, not instead of it, both are genuinely needed for a project that involves building near a public sewer.
