CCTV Drain Survey

---

What is a drain survey?

A drain survey is an inspection of your drainage system, using CCTV cameras which are inserted into your drains. The camera sends a live-feed back to the engineer allowing them to view into your drains so they can identify any issues that might be present.

Why should I have a drain survey?

Drain surveys will identify issues with your underground drains, this can be essential if you are buying a property or having continual issues with your drains. 

A pre-purchase drain survey can be arranged before you purchase a new home. The survey will generate a precise review of the current condition of the property’s drainage system and will provide an overview of any necessary repairs in the future. The survey provides buyers the opportunity to make a fully-informed decision before they sign any contracts.

Homeowners or tenants may also need a drain survey when they face one-off or ongoing drainage issues. 

What will a survey find?

Drain surveys are designed to deliver an extensive, thorough review of your drainage system, from structural damage to fatbergs, whatever the problem with your drains a survey should be able to identify and locate it. The survey can help to identify:

• Collapsed drains
• Root ingress
• Blockages
• Displaced pipework
• Poor installation

A drain survey has many advantages, but perhaps the most important is that it allows you to respond to existing issues and plan ahead to prevent future ones.
