Why do I need a CCTV survey?

Whether your drains are experiencing issues, you’re moving home, or you simply haven’t given your drains any TLC recently, a CCTV survey could be beneficial to you.

CCTV drain surveys are a great way to ensure there are no problems with the drains in your home. An expert drainage professional will use the latest and best equipment in order to make a thorough inspection of drains and pipes throughout your home. A small, CCTV camera is put down the drain to allow the expert to see exactly what’s going on inside. If there are any problems inside that aren’t visible from the outside, these will be easily detected. Once the survey is complete, you will be given a thorough report that states any issues and what the recommended action to take is.

Some common issues that are found by CCTV drain surveys include tree roots damaging the pipes from within, pipes that have collapsed, broken or cracked, blockages caused by fat build up and problems within the pipes joints.

Many drain problems are quick, easy and trouble-free to fix and repair. However, they are likely to cause less disturbance and less expense if they are diagnosed and fixed earlier. CCTV drain surveys can ensure you do not experience any hefty expenses in the future.

If you’re moving home, getting a CCTV drain survey on your current property and new property could ensure your home is easier to sell and that you don’t run into any unexpected problems during the move. It is much better to identify issues before a possible buyer finds them, or before you have moved in.
