Utility Claims

We understand the impact a utility project can have upon land owners and occupiers. Our early involvement can make a real difference in how the project progresses and reducing the impact of it on the affected party.

Davidson & Robertson’s surveyors and consultants are recognised as industry experts in connection with utilities claims. We have years of experience and a comprehensive working knowledge of the legislation and impacts that utility projects can have on land owners and occupiers.

We can assist with a range of projects for both new and existing infrastructure including water mains and sewers; gas pipelines and above ground installations; electricity overhead pole lines, pylons and underground cables; and telecommunications overhead lines, underground cables and associated apparatus.  It starts with us agreeing terms of entry, accommodation works, through to ensuring that sites are fully reinstated, and/or the appropriate compensation is paid for reinstatement, losses and disturbance. In addition, the utility company will normally pay Davidson & Robertson’s fees and expenses on behalf of the land owner or occupier
