Commercial and Industrial premises and development sites often require a higher level of indemnity than domestic properties to protect you from any risks that a property may face in relation to the ownership and location of South West Water sewers and water mains.

Source for Searches offers the CON29DW Commercial Premium Search for areas of land over 20,000 sqm, endorsed by a £10m indemnity against these potential risks.  A Commercial CON29DW search is an essential part of due diligence in purchasing a property.
