We survey the built drainage, confirm it follows the approved route — filter to a pressure-breaking manhole, through a gully trap and into the villa’s existing manhole — correct anything that does not, and submit.
Pool Completion Delayed — Missing Environmental NOC
Pool finished but completion or handover is stuck because the environmental NOC is missing? We prepare the drainage drawings based on what was built, submit to DM Environment Department and help close out the project.

Why Completion Gets Blocked
The environmental NOC is often forgotten until the end, especially in DDA and Trakhees areas where owners assume the permit authority covers it. Without it, the pool approval package is incomplete.
