Network Records

Utility network records are the foundation of any successful development. Without a clear understanding of existing infrastructure, projects can be exposed to unexpected risks, delays, and costs.

At Simple Utilities, we obtain network records from all relevant utility providers, giving you a consolidated view of the assets within and surrounding your site.

We carry out a high-level review of these records to identify whether assets fall within your site boundary and to assess the potential impact on your development. Each asset is considered and assigned a risk rating, high, medium, or low based on the likelihood of diversion or interaction with the proposed works.

This initial review provides early visibility of potential constraints, allowing you to make informed decisions before progressing into more detailed design or investigation.

We can support you with:

  • Obtaining network records from all relevant utility providers
  • High-level review of utility asset plans
  • Identification of assets within or adjacent to the site boundary
  • Risk rating of assets (high / medium / low) based on potential impact
  • Early-stage insight to support feasibility and planning decisions
  • Provision of clear and organised record packs for project teams

For a more detailed understanding of utility constraints, costs, and delivery risks, this service can be developed further into a full Utilities Assessment providing itemised budget estimates and detailed commentary to support land acquisition and project viability.

By understanding the likely utility constraints at an early stage, we help you reduce uncertainty and plan your development with greater confidence.
