Mr D Round – Individual – Flood Risk Statement

Wed 17 April 2013

On Friday afternoon, before my son was due to exchange contracts for the purchase of his new home, on the following week, he received an adverse report, from his solicitor’s property searches, that the home he was about to purchase could be at risk from pluvial flooding, and was likely to have difficulties with property insurance.

Wed 24 October 2012

I was recommended Sanderson Associates from my architect. I had just had my planning application refused by the local council. Sanderson’s were most professional, straight to the point and just as keen as me to get the matter resolved. I have been in business for over 12 years and wish I had been introduced to these guys earlier. Adam Darwin was exceptional in his approach … Continue reading
