Environmental and Flooding

Our range of accurate environmental searches make sure conveyancers are able to identify potential contamination risks before purchase. This protects you and your clients, while also satisfying the Law Society Practice Note on contaminated land. In addition, we offer comprehensive due diligence reports on flood risk, ensuring you're in the know of this ever evolving risk.

Common environmental searches cover a range of potential risks a commercial property might face. As such, they identify a number of factors such as contaminated land, subsidence and flood risk.

With flooding becoming a regular news item in recent years, buyers cannot afford to overlook a potential risk. What’s interesting is that many of the properties affected by flooding don’t actually sit in designated flood plains. So a standalone search should be considered to make sure commercial property buyers consider all types of flood risk.

To help you out, our useful alerts ensure that you are advised when a flood search is recommended on a particular property.
