With many years of experience, we provide invaluable subsurface information through our Statutory Record Search.
We have built excellent relationships with all the major Utility Asset Providers, such as Scottish power, United Utilities and Seven Water, which enables us to provide an unrivalled service in the production of Desktop Utility Studies.
This search is an essential step in your due diligence process for land and property development. By centralising information and identifying details like abandoned utilities, pipe sizes, and materials, we empower your projects with the right knowledge from the start.
Over the years we have assisted many clients in ensuring they are provided as much knowledge and information as possible in relation to what’s going on underneath the ground on their sites. The first step in this process is usual a Statutory Record Search. Utility Record Searches should be used as part of your due diligence process in land and property development and are an essential tool for anyone involved in the development of construction sites (however large or small). We provide Desktop Utility Searches for many sectors including but not limited to, Renewables, Telecoms, construction, Utility Providers and Highways.
We take the pressure away from contacting countless independent providers and then collecting and collating a multitude of different drawings and documents in order to try and make sense of them. We pride ourselves on the quality of output that clients ranging from private individuals to large-scale main contractors have received and are delighted with the results.
The Desktop Utility Search we provide is fully PAS128 Survey Level D compliant, and are often used in conjunction with an onsite utility survey. They are considered a vital starting point that would be provided to our on-site surveyor. They also enable us to identify additional information that would not be possible on-site, such as:
- Abandoned or disused utilities
- Pipe sizes and materials
- Cable voltages
