THE SEARCHES
Every search the case needs, in one order
Order them one at a time or together as your own search pack. Either way they sit on one case, with one team behind them.
Drainage and water searches
Regulated drainage and water reports for every water company area in England and Wales. Add one to the same order as your local authority search and it comes back on the same case, in the same clear layout.
- Whether the property is connected to mains water and the public sewer
- Where public sewers and water mains run in and around the boundary
- Who supplies the property and how it is charged
- Ordered, tracked and returned alongside your other searches
Environmental searches
Choose the provider your firm prefers. Reports cover contaminated land, flood risk, ground stability, radon and climate, for residential and commercial property, and many are back within minutes.
Casera tops them all
Having been through several different search providers, Casera tops them all. Their searches are easy to read, understand and their prices are competitive.
Debbie EverettManaging Director, EG LawExceptionally quicker than any other provider
Casera’s customer service is second to none. Everyone we deal with is very helpful and very knowledgeable, and the turnaround time is exceptionally quicker than any other search provider we have used in the past.
Kirsty PymerGreene & Greene SolicitorsA breath of fresh air
Our old provider made everything feel complicated: Slow responses and poorly formatted reports. We were always chasing updates. Switching to Casera has been a breath of fresh air.

Property searches
Can I order local authority, drainage and water and environmental searches together?
Yes. Add them to one order and they sit on a single case. If you order the same set every time, ask for your own search pack and benefit from discounted prices.
What is the difference between a regulated and an official local authority search?
An official search is compiled by the council’s own staff, who issue an LLC1 certificate and reply to the CON29. A regulated search is compiled by an independent search agent, who inspects the same registers and answers the same enquiries in a report.
Can I order CON29O optional enquiries?
Yes. Every CON29O enquiry is available when you order.
Which environmental search providers can I choose from?
Groundsure, Landmark and Martello. Pick the provider your firm prefers when you order.
What areas do you cover?
We provide search services across England and Wales, ensuring comprehensive coverage wherever your transactions take place.
What are your turnaround times?
Council search turnaround times vary from one to the other, but our regulated search product is significantly faster. Our platform provides live turnaround times for all council and regulated reports, so why not create an account and check them out for yourself?
What happens if a search is delayed?
Council delays can happen, but our system keeps you automatically updated with new estimated completion dates, helping you manage client expectations.
