Easements Explained: What They Are & How They Affect Property Owners
Introduction It is sometimes necessary for a person, a company, or the general public, to access or use privately owned land for their own benefit
In many cases, where residential property is impacted by underground or overhead high voltage cables or its supporting apparatus, the private homeowner is able to seek compensation for its impact. Thomson Broadbent have years of expertise negotiating new Easement and Wayleave agreements that take into consideration the impact such equipment has on property value.
We can help with:
Understand how temporary agreements for utility access can benefit your property with a Wayleave.
Learn how permanent Easement agreements can impact your land and secure compensation.
Discover how leasing rights to utility companies can provide long-term benefits for your property.
Find answers to your questions about high voltage cables on your property, including how to open a case, potential compensation, and the impact on your land.
This depends on whether the new agreement is a wayleave or an easement. Many wayleaves typically take as little as 6 months to complete and easements typically take 12-24 months depending on the DNO.
An easement is a permenant right that will be recorded in the property deeds and be binding on future owners. A wayleave is an annual or fixed term agreement and expires either at the end of the term or a change in ownership.
This depends on several factors, such as, the type of agreement, the type of equipment and the value of your property. Each case is individually assessed but, most clients receive between £750 and £30,000. The highest we have settled is over £1million!

With your permission, one of our team would be happy to carry out a search to see if permanent rights have already been granted by a previous owner.
If you sell your property before your case is completed, the right to negotiate a new agreement will pass to the new owner. We will close our file at no charge.
