Water pipe responsibilities
Before purchasing, buyers need to understand how a property is supplied with water, which company supplies it, and whether there are any issues with water flow or hardness.
The CON29DW report retrieves this valuable information to help buyers avoid unexpected costs and disputes after purchasing a property. Our in-house prepared CON29DW report for the Severn Trent region is typically delivered within one working day. You can also order this drainage and water report from us for any area in England.
