Why a CCTV Drain Survey Could Save You Time and Money

Introduction

Many property owners don’t realise that drain problems can go undetected until they become emergencies. A CCTV drain survey is a cost-effective way to identify hidden issues before they cause serious damage.

What Is a CCTV Drain Survey?

A CCTV drain survey involves inserting a small camera into your drainage system to inspect the condition of the pipes. It allows engineers to detect cracks, collapses, blockages, and root intrusion without the need for disruptive digging.

Benefits of a CCTV Survey

• Early Detection – Spot problems before they escalate into costly repairs

• Accurate Diagnosis – Engineers can see the exact location and cause of the blockage

• Time and Cost Savings – Targeted repairs reduce labour and material costs

• Peace of Mind – Know the condition of your drains and plan maintenance accordingly

When to Consider a CCTV Survey

• Recurring blockages in the same drain

• Older properties with ageing drainage systems

• After flooding or water ingress incidents

• Before buying a property to avoid hidden drainage issues
