Sewer Connections
Vista Civil Engineering delivers specialist sewer connections (Section 104 & Drainage Works) for residential, commercial and mixed-use developments across the UK. From initial design support through to installation and adoption, Vista provides a fully managed service aligned with water authority requirements.
Reliable, compliant drainage infrastructure is critical to project success. When sewer connections are delivered incorrectly, the result is often delays, redesigns and complications at adoption stage. Vista removes this risk through a structured, experience-led approach.

Sewer Connections & Adoptable Drainage Infrastructure
All foul and surface water drainage systems must be designed and installed to meet strict standards set by water authorities before adoption, typically under Section 104 agreements.
Vista supports the delivery of adoptable sewer infrastructure, ensuring:
• Compliance with water authority specifications
• Accurate installation and testing
• Efficient progression to adoption
• Integration with wider site infrastructure works
