Drainage and water searches


If you’re about to purchase or sell a property, you probably want a report to show whether it’s served by a public water main or sewer and if any of this infrastructure is located within the property’s boundary. This kind of report is called a ‘drainage and water search’.

Before you apply, you will need to confirm that the property is located within our area. You can use this postcode checker to do so.
