Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need a Pre-Build Survey for my Lambeth extension?
A Build-Over Agreement is required if you are building within 3m of a public sewer in Lambeth. It protects you and the water authority.
Will this survey satisfy Thames Water in Lambeth?
Yes. We use WinCan reporting software, which is the industry standard accepted by Thames Water and Lambeth building control.
What happens if you find damage during the Lambeth survey?
We will provide a clear HD video of the damage and a fixed-price quote to repair it before your Lambeth build commences.
Do I need a post-build survey as well in Lambeth?
Often, yes. Water authorities in Lambeth may require a “Post-Build” check to ensure your construction hasn’t damaged the sewer.
How long is a Pre-Build Survey valid for in Lambeth?
Usually, these surveys are valid for 12 months, provided no significant groundworks have occurred on your Lambeth site since the check.
Can you trace the depth of the pipe for my Lambeth structural engineer?
Absolutely. Our Sonde and Trace technology provides the exact depth data Lambeth engineers need for footing designs.
Do you work with Lambeth-based architects?
Yes, we are the preferred drainage partner for many architectural firms across the Lambeth area for all pre-construction works.
Is the survey messy or disruptive to my Lambeth property?
Not at all. It is entirely non-invasive. We access the pipes through existing manholes on your Lambeth site.
