Some homes, country houses in particular, are not connected to mains drainage systems.

If your home discharges waste effluent into land or water, such as rivers or streams or the coast you will usually require a discharge consent from the Environment Agency.

We can advise on the need for Discharge Consents, and can obtain the necessary forms on your behalf.

On sales and purchases we can arrange for the Consents to be transferred to the new owner.

We can assist when disputes arise with the Environment Agency as to conditions imposed under such Consents.
