Why do I need a drainage and water search?
A drainage and water search is an essential part of the conveyancing process when you’re buying or selling a residential property.
It includes key information about a property’s water and sewerage services including:
- Whether the property is connected to a mains water supply
- Where the water meter is located, if there is one
- Whether the property experiences low water pressure
- The water hardness for the property
