This thing is not resolved much to my ire, I am loosing patience with STW.
They admitted theyre records were wrong regarding 2x225mm pipes running underground the side of my property.
They then instructed me to confirm internal drainage layout at the rear my property, I have no manholes so I couldnt dig it all up so they said check neighbours. One of my neighbours manholes (his own private one made for flows from his property) flows to the rear of my garden at an angle.
Now they want me to investigate this by digging up my rear garden to find a pipe or putting a camera down the neighbours pipe. Quite frankly I am not going to put a camera down there as I have disturbed this neighbour on multiple occasions and I do not intend to keep digging up until I find holes.
My side extension would be 7 metres away from where the neighbours pipe intercepts my rear garden, and it is angling towards my rear fence not front of my house.
This is the wording of there email;
"
As this shows the pipes from 64 go onto your property, a bit more investigation is needed, either by trial dig or another CCTV survey on that pipe, to confirm where it goes, and if it meets any other sewer within your property.
If that pipes just meets a pipe from your house, and is more than 3m away from any proposed build at the closest point, then we do not need anything more.
However, if it is within 3m of your build, or it shows another public (shared) sewer that is within 3m, then you need to submit a Build over/Build close application before any building work starts.
"
I am waiting for a call back, I just feel theyre using me to find where there sewers are. Can I just say no and carry on with the build as I dont see how that pipe will go to front of my property.
