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.
