The Utilities Report provides valuable information which consultants and engineers should obtain before any excavations, designs or developments commence as it will help reduce the risk of:
- Expensive litigation if damage is caused
- Delayed project design
- Increased foundation costs
- Added danger for the workforce involved.
The report, which will be despatched within 15 days, outlines features below the surface such as gas and oil pipelines, electricity cables, telecommunication wires, mains water supplies, sewers and fibre-optic cables. The benefits of the Utilities Report include:
- Comprehensive - all utilities are covered (approx. 30 are contacted per report)
- Accurate - information gathered directly from the utility operators
- Reliable - detailed knowledge of the utilities relevant to the search area
- Cost-effective - saves many man hours so time can be used more effectively
The Utilities Report is available to order online at www.landmarkinfo.co.uk/orders and will be despatched within 15 days. The cost is £250 excluding VAT and disbursements (please see example disbursements fee table below) for sites up to 15 hectares with less than a 2km perimeter - quotes for larger sites are available from Customer Service on 01392 441719.
