What Is a CCTV Drain Survey?

A CCTV drain survey establishes exactly what’s going on in your drains. Using specialist equipment and cameras, we provide a thorough inspection of the drains on your property – something you just can’t assess without a CCTV survey.

Modern, mounted cameras that are fed and progressed through your drain and sewer systems allow our expert engineers to check the condition of your drains fully. This allows us to spot and highlight any issues, from small cracks to major structural damage. It also means we can map and locate the pipework in your drains easily.

A full CCTV drain survey report can be provided, along with the footage and analysis using our years of experience.

FAQs

How long does a CCTV drain survey take?

How long your CCTV drain survey takes depends on the size and complexity of the drainage system of your property. The larger the site, the more pipework we need to cover and inspect. For a typical domestic CCTV drain survey, you can expect the service to last between 30 minutes and 2 hours. If you need more information, don’t hesitate to contact our friendly team who will be able to discuss survey durations.

Should I have a CCTV drain survey for my new home?

Yes. We can’t recommend this enough, as a drain survey can highlight any issues before you make the purchase. We offer home buyers drain surveys for this exact reason, saving you from unexpected repair costs. If you’ve already made the purchase and want to get to grips with your drains, we also recommend a CCTV drain survey, as it can help prevent future issues.

What happens if a problem is found during the survey?

Whichever CCTV drain survey package you choose with us, we’ll always include a face-to-face discussion on our findings. That means you’ll be told about any issues or potential problems that our engineers locate. However, with a comprehensive survey, we’ll provide a full written report, video footage and still images of any defects. On top of this, we’re always happy to provide our advice on the work you need carried out to rectify any problems. You can then weigh up your options knowing you’ve got the experts on your side.
