If the winter garden was built before July 1, 2011, it requires an explicit building permit or permit, and may have required a building permit. If the winter garden was recently built without a construction agreement, the same sanctions and solutions are available. It should be noted that if the winter garden requires approval of the building rules, then the construction inspector may require to see a construction agreement before the construction is signed. In accordance with Part H4 of Schedule 1 of the 2010 Construction Code, SI 2010/2214, the agreement of the wastewater distributor is required for construction by public sewers. These are both dirt and surface water sewers. If a public sewer works underground, the homeowner cannot build on or within three metres of the sewer line without the consent of the wastewater collector. This consent is the Build Over Agreement. Consent is required before work begins and may be refused. All sewer companies have legal rights for access to public sewers located on private land. These include sewers located under or near a property. Once building permits have been issued, sewerage companies will generally attempt to seize the sewers without disrupting the land.
If this is unavoidable, they will repair all the damage done in reason. This will be defined in the terms of the implementation of agreements. However, if sewers have been built without authorization, sewerage companies have the right to access and protect by any means they deem appropriate. This may include the requirement that buildings that obstruct or block access to a public channel be modified or removed at the homeowner`s expense. In reality, companies have machines that generally allow them to access a damaged pipe from another point unimpeded and avoid damage wherever possible, but a risk remains.

It is the fastest and cheapest option, but whether or not insurance is available depends on the circumstances of each case. Sometimes problems arise when owners try to sell their property, which is built in part or entirely through a public channel. Conservatories and extensions are the usual criminals. If a Build Over Agreement was not obtained when the work was done, then the water company has the legal right to enter the land to reach the canal, even if that means demolishing the building above the canal. However, if possible, the water company will avoid the damage and look for other ways to enter the sewers, but the risk remains.
