| Surface Water Drainage
Studies Several water companies charge their commercial customers for surface water and highway drainage disposal on a site area basis. This often leads to unnecessary costs being incurred by clients. At Peak we can check whether you are currently being charged the correct amount for your site. We have uncovered errors in the site plans used by the water companies for charging purposes, the solution of which has lead to savings at some sites thousands of pounds per year. Our expertise in the field of drainage systems can also be utilised to devise alternative solutions for the disposal of surface water which can ultimately lead to huge cost savings. Reviews are completed by our own specialist staff and our recommendations are tailored to your individual circumstances. | |||
