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.

How much will it cost?

The charge for this service can be found on our schedule of charges here. You will need a valid credit or debit card to make payment at the time of application, and the fee is non-refundable.

This application is for customers who require a one-off drainage and water search report. If you are likely to require multiple drainage and water search reports per month then please get in contact with us on 0800 917 2652 to request a business account.
