If my system is failing, can my application be fast-tracked?

The Free Upgrade Scheme is not designed to respond to urgent or emergency situations. Funding for the scheme is directly linked to developer activity in the Somerset Levels and Moors catchment, and current market conditions – combined with a policy change allowing developers to receive planning consent without first securing a Reservation Notice – have significantly slowed the release of upgrade funding. A substantial wait is currently expected for scheme upgrades.

If your current system is failing and you cannot wait, WCI can still help – we have over 40 years of experience in off-mains drainage and can carry out a fast, fully funded paid installation outside of the free upgrade scheme. Contact us to discuss your options.
