Drainage Build Over Agreements in
Yealmpton
South West Water has to approve any Yealmpton 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 StartedUnderstanding Yealmpton’s Build Over Requirements
Getting South West Water’s approval for a Yealmpton 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 Yealmpton projects a CCTV survey forms part of that submission, for others it doesn’t, South West Water’s requirement depends on the individual site. We’re upfront about which applies before any work starts.
Every Yealmpton enquiry gets checked against both requirements honestly, planning permission and South West Water’s build over agreement, since conflating the two causes real delay.
