The new service can offer summary information through to an end-to-end compliant solution, from initial support at the network design phase, through to wayleave management, surveying, and completion.
Trenches Law has enlisted a five-strong team of surveyors to provide freeholders and managing agents of multi-dwelling units (MDUs) with the information they need to then sign wayleaves associated with a network build. The company said this should accelerate the wayleave process, and better protect network providers from delayed programmes of work.
Terry Daniell, operations director and co-founder of Trenches Law (pictured), explained, “When we saw project after project being delayed because of the UK’s lack of surveyors, we decided to do something about it.
“Some clients are looking for simple summary information, while others seek detailed planning packs containing over 30 spreadsheets, drawings, details of fixings, fire safety assessments and more. We acknowledge that there’s no such thing as ‘one size fits all’, and that’s okay with us.”
Prior to launching the new service, Trenches Law worked closely with altnet Digital Infrastructure on a pilot scheme to beta test the service.
Charlie Ruddy, CEO, Digital Infrastructure, added, “Managing all aspects of wayleaves is key to unlocking the pace and scale to bringing full fibre solutions to the MDU environment. Trenches Law continue to lead the way in this challenging eco system.”
