When a contractor employs us for a drain survey, our technicians will arrive onsite with a mobile CCTV camera to insert into the pipework. Once inside, the camera’s operator will investigate and highlight any structural faults or defects, both on the footage and in their notes. We record the entire survey onto video or DVD, which is included in a computer-generated report sent directly to the customer.
We have invested in the latest camera equipment to provide the best possible recordable image & the reporting software.

FAQs
What is a CCTV drain survey?
A CCTV drain survey is a modern diagnostic procedure that eliminates the guesswork once common in identifying drainage problems. Instead of speculating, we use high-tech cameras inserted directly into your pipework to get a clear, live view of the system’s condition. This allows us to precisely identify any faults or blockages, record the findings, and then recommend the most effective and accurate remedial work, ensuring you only pay for the repairs you truly need.
I'm buying a house. How can a drain survey protect my investment?
A pre-purchase drain survey is a crucial step that can protect you from significant financial loss. This inspection can uncover severe, hidden structural defects within the drainage system that even the current owner may be unaware of. By identifying these issues before you finalise the purchase, a survey provides you with critical information that could save you thousands of pounds in unexpected and costly repair bills after you move in, safeguarding your new investment.
What information and documents will I receive after the survey is complete?
Upon completion, you will receive a comprehensive package of findings. This includes the full survey recorded on video or DVD, giving you a visual record of the inspection. You will also get a detailed report outlining all observations, a plan of the drainage system, and a no-obligation free quotation for any recommended remedial work. For your convenience, the full report, running images, and quotation can be emailed directly to you.
