CCTV Drain Surveys
Camera inspection that helps locate drainage problems, assess pipe condition and support clear decisions about the next step.
A clear view inside your drainage system
A CCTV drain survey uses specialist camera equipment to inspect the inside of accessible pipework without relying on guesswork.
The camera footage can help identify restrictions, displaced joints, cracks, root intrusion, scale, debris and other visible defects. Findings depend on access, visibility and the condition of the drain at the time of inspection.
Where a drain is heavily blocked, clearance or jetting may be needed before a useful inspection can be completed. We explain this before proceeding with any additional work.
A survey may be useful for
- Recurring blockages or slow flow
- Unexplained smells or suspected leaks
- Condition checks before planned work
- Locating visible defects or obstructions
- Supporting repair and maintenance decisions
What a CCTV survey can help establish
The goal is to replace assumptions with visible information about the accessible drainage run.
01
Pipe condition
Review visible sections for cracks, deformation, displaced joints and signs of deterioration.
02
Restrictions
Identify visible deposits, debris, roots or other obstructions that may be reducing flow.
03
Likely fault location
Narrow down where an issue appears within the accessible drainage system.
04
Recurring problems
Investigate why a drain repeatedly blocks after basic clearance.
05
Planning information
Provide useful drainage information before repair, maintenance or property work is arranged.
06
Recorded findings
Where agreed, survey findings can be documented to support clear communication and next steps.
Survey process
-
Define the survey brief
We confirm the problem, reason for the survey, access points and any known drainage history.
-
Inspect accessible pipework
The camera is passed through suitable access points while visible conditions are reviewed.
-
Explain the findings
We outline what was visible, any limitations and the most sensible next step based on the inspection.
