A build-over agreement is a legal agreement between a developer or builder and a utility company (such as a gas, water, or telecommunications provider) to allow building work to take place above or near the utility’s underground assets (such as pipes or cables).
We are always here. If you are planning to carry out building work that will involve building over or near underground utility assets, you will need to obtain a Build Over Agreement from the relevant utility company before work can begin. So, our duty is to confirm that the utility company will assess the proposed building work to ensure that it will not damage their assets and will not pose a risk to public safety.
Again, we are always ready to obtain a build-over agreement. You will typically need to submit a plan of the proposed building work to the utility company and may need to pay a fee. The utility company will then assess the plan and may make any necessary changes or requirements to ensure that the work can be carried out safely; this is another major concern. Once the agreement has been reached, the next concern is that the utility company will issue a Build Over Notice, which will outline the terms and conditions of the agreement and any necessary precautions that must be taken during the building work.
Finally, we want to confirm that it is important to note that a build-over agreement is separate from planning permission, which is the process of obtaining permission from the local authority to carry out building work. You may need to obtain both a build-over agreement and planning permission before you can begin building work.
