“It now takes only a few days to complete a CON29DW and answer the 23 detailed questions concerning the potential home-buyers’ water and sewerage infrastructure. Not securing a Drainage and Water Enquiry early on in the house purchasing process presents unnecessary risk in what will be the most significant purchase of their lives.”
