Blackmore, CM4
Civil Engineering in Blackmore: Local Knowledge
Blackmore is a rural village north of Brentwood, built around its village green and ponds. The village and the countryside around it lie within the Metropolitan Green Belt, and Blackmore falls under Brentwood Borough Council for planning. Building work here often means thinking carefully about access along narrow lanes and about fitting in with the village’s character.
Our office in Hutton is around 5 miles from Blackmore as the crow flies, so we are close at hand for site visits and while your project is on site. We also work regularly in nearby Doddinghurst, Fryerning and Kelvedon Hatch.
Planning & approvals in Blackmore
Blackmore is in the CM4 postcode area, and planning applications and building control for projects here are handled by Brentwood Borough Council. We work alongside you, your architect and the council from the start, so the right approvals are in place before work begins. Essex Highways looks after the roads and footways, which matters for anything that affects the public highway, such as skips, deliveries, drainage connections or a dropped kerb.
Why use a local builder?
Being based in Hutton means we know the ground conditions, councils and suppliers around Blackmore. You deal directly with Mark or Tom Boswell, who can visit your property, talk through your plans and give you an honest quotation.
Sewer connections
Connections to the Public Sewer in Blackmore
New homes and some extensions need a connection to the public sewer. These connections must be approved by the water company before work starts — normally through a Section 106 application — and where the connection is in the road or footpath, the work also needs permission from the highway authority.
We can explain what is involved, help you prepare for the approvals and then carry out the excavation, connection and reinstatement to the required standard.
Water company approval
Connections to the public sewer must be approved by the water company. We’ll talk you through the process and the information needed.
Works in the highway
Where the sewer is in the road or footpath, the work needs highway authority permission, traffic management and proper reinstatement.
