Adoptable drainage support for developers and contractors
Support for Section 104 sewer adoption works, adoptable drainage construction, pumping stations, rising mains, inspection preparation and handover evidence.
Overview
A Section 104 agreement provides a route for a sewerage company to adopt qualifying sewerage infrastructure constructed by a developer or self-lay provider. The agreement, approved drawings, current sector guidance and any site-specific conditions control what must be built, tested, recorded and handed over.

We work from the approved drainage design and agreement position, then coordinate construction, inspection preparation, testing, records and close-out around the requirements for that scheme.

Adoption support can involve gradients, manhole details, infiltration checks, joint condition, cleaning, channel finish, records or pumping station information. Early technical review helps keep the process clearer for everyone involved.

S104 drainage work can cover the adoptable sewer network serving a development, including foul and surface water pipework, manholes, lateral drains, pumping stations and rising mains where these form part of the approved scheme. The exact adoptable assets and responsibilities come from the agreement and approved design, so we review those documents before defining the construction or close-out scope.

Send the site postcode, approved drainage drawings, drainage strategy, current Section 104 documents, sewerage company comments, inspection records, programme and any known construction changes. This lets the delivery scope be separated from design, legal or approval items that remain with the relevant professional or authority.
Questions
A Section 104 agreement is the route by which a sewerage company may adopt qualifying sewerage infrastructure built by a developer or self-lay provider. The approved agreement, drawings and site-specific conditions determine what must be constructed, tested, recorded and handed over. It is usually a development/adoption route; if you are dealing with a private or unadopted sewer at an existing property, first confirm ownership with the sewerage company and take legal advice where responsibility is unclear.
