Completion Certificates
A completion certificate is a document which states that infrastructure (pipe work) has been inspected and tested by WASA and has been found to be up to WASA’s standards. This inspection is done for building developments as well as private homes. These inspections are carried out and the completion certificates are issued before any interconnection is done to WASA’s system. Please note that in the case of private homes inspections are done before connecting to WASA’s sewerage system only.
