One of the issues with domestic and commercial drains and sewers is that they are hidden away, normally a potential problem only comes to light when an issue or blockage actually occurs.
A CCTV drainage survey is a process for examining the condition of drainage systems remotely with a camera system that records video footage and captures other useful data, making the inspection of drains and sewers more efficient.
Rather than performing an excavation of your drainage system, a camera unit is lowered into the pipe which sends high-definition images back to a monitor.
Once the survey is complete, our engineers will discuss the findings with you and recommend relevant solutions. A full copy of the survey with still images will also be provided to you.
The technology has become an essential tool for inspecting and surveying underground drains, sewers, culverts, and associated drainage assets safely, quickly and cost-effectively.
The techniques and equipment deployed to carry out CCTV drainage surveys can also be used to inspect above ground pipes, for example soil stacks and rainwater downpipes.
Also, if you are planning an extension, most water authorities will insist on a drain survey taking place prior to building works being started. This will identify the condition and placement of your pipework
