This is a BT retail site. You would need to ask Openreach, it has nothing to do with BT.

Hi @Julie29 I'd recommend checking out the Openreach developer's website

Thanks

I suspect you are going to have to pay for a survey first. Either way, you must register your site, if you want Openreach to provide a connection to the network.

We have registered the site but trying to get any information is painful

You would need to use the same type of duct Openreach use and build it to their specifications otherwise they won’t let you connect it to their Network, nor would they adopt it once installed and the homeowners would then ultimately be, which may cause problems for them in the future.

Thank you for the reply. We know the ducting to use but can't establish if two properties are 'share' the ducting.

What are you asking exactly?

Are the 2 homes Semi Detached and have a Duct in the middle of the two?

I suppose you could but it might cause a boundary issue later on if one neighbour decides to play the ****hole card.
