Independent land agents negotiating wayleaves for electrical equipment affecting homeowner land

Claim Eligibility

If electrical equipment crosses over, under, or on your land you may be eligible to claim wayleave compensation worth potentially hundreds of pounds should you meet the following criteria:

Oversail

Strut

Stay

Mural

Pole

Once you instruct Darlands we will create a report of the potential claim for you and send it to the electrical company. Should you be owed payment, you will keep 100% of it as we are paid separately for acting on your behalf by the electrical company.

Any part of electrical lines, poles, or equipment cross over your property.

The electrical equipment services 3rd parties, not just you.

You hold the freehold or leasehold of the property.

There are no rights associated with the electrical equipment (we will check this for you).

Claim Process

We follow a 5 step process to completing your claim with us that usually takes 3 to 6 months, but can take longer.

Step 1: Inspection

We attend in person at your home to assess the electrical equipment and check what you are able to claim. Coupled with your signed Letter of Authority, this allows us to collect detailed documentation such as photos and mapping of your border that are essential for creating a claim for you.

Step 2: Review

We review all of the information collected at your property in addition to online records we obtain such as land registry to review the potential claim available to you.

Step 3: Submission

Should you be eligible to make a claim we will create a report and send it to the electrical company detailing your claim to them, allowing them to assess against their own records whether payment is due to you.

If the electrical company agree with our review they will produce a wayleave agreement confirming the extent of the electrical equipment affecting your land, and what payment you may be owed. Once you're happy with their offer you sign it and send it back to us.

Step 4: Wayleave

Step 5: Payment

Your signed wayleave will be promptly returned to the electrical company who will then make payment to you in the form of a cheque.
