CCTV A Useful Aid For Drain Surveys

Sometimes, a closer look at a drainage problem is required before it can be fixed. In these cases, CCTV can be a useful aid.

Both domestic and commercial properties can have old drainage systems prone to damage. It is important to make sure the system is still working well. Specialist CCTV cameras allow our professionals to view your drainage system to discover the problem and how it could be rectified.

The specialised cameras are able to detect: blockages, cracks, lime-scale, tree root damage, loose joints and leaks.

With a detailed live view of the problem, we can determine the best method to repair the system.

All of our inspections come with a written report detailing any faults that may have been found, recommendations and a quote so you can see what it might cost you to fix them.

Call our team today to book your CCTV drainage survey on 01202 355 344.

How Do CCTV Drain Surveys Work?

A CCTV drain survey is quite simple and very effective.  

Our professionals send their cameras through the drainage system. The camera feeds live images to a screen by the engineers who interpret the footage, recognising potential problems.

Using the live feedback from the system, our team can start making recommendations on the course of action.

We will complete a thorough report that analyses the video and explains what is shown and our recommended next steps. Along with this report, you will get a copy of the footage.

Benefits of CCTV drain surveys

Getting a CCTV drain survey can be incredibly beneficial, making it a worthy investment. They provide the most accurate and up-to-date information about the state of your drainage system while allowing almost instant results and recommendations that are supported by a more detailed analysis.

Benefits of having a drain survey include:

Reduces bills – In one CCTV drain survey, we'll be able to find the cause of the problem and a cost-effective solution. The lower the number of visits, the lower the cost.

Avoid future problems – A CCTV drain survey can spot problems long before they become serious. The earlier potential issues are spotted, the earlier they can be dealt with, preventing costly emergency repairs.

Gather information on your new property – When investing valuable money into anything, it's always worth gaining as much information as possible. We can arrange a CCTV drain survey prior to purchasing, allowing you to avoid any unexpected costs once the property is purchased.

A CCTV drain survey uses CCTV technology to assess your drainage system from the inside. There are many reasons you may need a drain survey, for example, if you are building an extension, experiencing surface flooding, or having recurring drain issues. 

A CCTV drain survey may be valuable if you’re experiencing recurring issues with blockages, or you suspect you might have a bigger problem like a collapsed or broken pipe. A drain survey offers an efficient and minimally invasive way to diagnose larger issues.

It’s a good idea to find out as much as possible about any property you intend to buy. If you’ve been made aware that the property has experienced drainage issues in the past, a CCTV survey may be worthwhile. This will make you aware of any serious issues and give you an idea of how much it will cost to fix.
