Has anyone else received a booklet about this?
In simple terms, the utility company are taking on responsibility for the section of the sewer from your boundary to the main sewer. (Shared services are a little more complicated).
Of course, because of the extra responsibility, this may require an extra charge on the bill, estimated at between £3 & £14 per year. (This small section of the sewer, as you are well aware, requires a lot of inspection & maintenance*).
This is in no way at all a money-spinner*.
As the booklet says, this will affect half of the properties in England & Wales.
It is, as you can guess, a load of sh1t!
