General binding rules
The next stage is to investigate the tank’s discharge point to ensure it complies with the general binding rules.

We will compile a full report of our findings with recommendations for changes, if necessary, so you can take this information to your solicitors when completing the house sale/purchase.

Selling Your home?

As a home seller, you have the option to book a home seller drainage survey with us, which mirrors the home buyer survey in thoroughness and detail.

This proactive approach not only ensures that you are selling with a compliant drainage system but also provides peace of mind during the selling process.

By having this report in hand, you can confidently present your property to potential buyers, minimizing concerns about drainage issues that could lead to price negotiations.

When buyers see a well-documented drainage system, it significantly reduces the likelihood that they will attempt to negotiate a lower price based on potential drainage problems.

This transparency can enhance buyer confidence and streamline the sale, ultimately protecting your property’s value. Investing in a drainage survey can be a small price to pay for the assurance that your home’s drainage is sound, making it less likely that buyers will find reasons to knock money off your asking price. For more information, feel free to contact us!

If the compliance report shows that the system is not compliant, we will provide you with a quote for the recommended changes so you can take the survey and quote to your solicitors to move forward with the sale.
