Adoption Management
JLES Group acknowledge and understand that due to the current nature of the industry, the seeking of road and sewer adoptions can not take presedent within a typical house builders technical department.
At JLES Group we have an established, proven, economical and efficient method of facilitating the adoption of sites under the relevant agreements (sections 37, 38, 102, 104, 106, 278). Our systems alleviate the developer from the workload and nuissence unadopted sites bring, whilst also ensuring they remain in control and updated of all issues and costs.
Advantages of using JLES Adoptions Management
- We will reduce your number of site yet to be adopted, thus relieving your company of any Bond amounts it is still accountable for.
- Your engineering department will become more efficient as it will be able to concentrate 100% of its resources to ongoing live sites.
- Claims for personal injury from members of the public that have experienced a trip or fall on your highways will be reduced.
- Our reports allow you to accurately forecast the cost to get a site adopted and hence allow for it within the budget.
- Our services allow you to judge whether retention on a sub contractor should be released.
- Payments made due to sites that are overddue for adoption will be reduced.
- Maintenance costs of up-adopted sites will fall, (i.e. Road Sweeping, Weed Killing, Gritting, Mowing of Parks).
- Sites that have remained upadopted for years will eventually get adopted.
- Initial JL Inspections (sewers) often highlight faults/issues that can be remedied in a more cost effective way than if a United Utilities engineer picked it up initially during the joint inspection.

In contrast we have experience working for the LA and understand the standards and guidelines that engineers have when adopting sites.
