Searches Direct can provide two types of Drainage & Water Searches, a Searches Direct produced Regulated Drainage & Water Search or a Water Company produced Drainage & Water Search.
A Drainage & Water Search is a document often ordered by solicitors and conveyancers as part of the conveyancing process. Searches Direct can provide you with a Regulated Drainage & Water Search for Residential and Commercial properties, or areas of land. A Regulated Drainage & Water Search provides underwritten and guaranteed information, alerting purchasers to unnecessary risks giving them and their adviser’s security, peace of mind and a clear trail of responsibility back to the Water Companies.
Some of the issues covered in a Drainage & Water Search include, billing information, water quality, if it has a mains water supply and if it is connected to drainage facilities along with many other issues. There are still thousands of properties in UK which are not connected to sewers or mains water. They may use soak always, culverts, rivers or streams to disperse surface water, septic tanks, cesspool for sewage and wells or boreholes for the supply of water.

We will always make every effort to obtain the information required to answer the same questions as the Water Companies within the Searches Direct produced Regulated Drainage & Water Searches. However, it is not always possible due to the restrictions on access to information imposed on search companies by the various Water Companies. When information required to answer a question on a Searches Direct Produced Regulated Drainage & Water Search is not available, it will be stated within the report and insurance is also in place to cover financial losses incurred due to lack of information.
