Technical drawings prepared to support Build Over applications where extensions or other construction works are proposed over or close to public sewer infrastructure.
Building Near a Public Sewer
If a proposed extension or new structure is located over or close to a public sewer, approval from the relevant water authority may be required before construction can proceed. The authority will generally need clear information showing the sewer, proposed building and foundation arrangement.
Star Plans can prepare the technical drawings needed to support a Build Over application, showing the relationship between the proposed development and existing drainage infrastructure. Clear and accurate information helps demonstrate how the works are intended to be carried out while protecting access to the sewer and reducing the risk of damage.
