Uncovering Hidden Truths: What Our CCTV Drain Survey Reveals

Our state-of-the-art CCTV drain survey is a non-invasive way to inspect your entire drainage system, from inside your property out to the main sewer connections. Using specialised cameras, we can navigate through your pipes, recording live footage of their internal condition. This cutting-edge technology allows us to see exactly what's going on, even in hard-to-reach areas. It's like an X-ray for your drains, providing a clear picture of their health without any disruptive digging.

What Nasty Surprises Could Be Lurking Beneath Your New Billinge Home?

Without a professional drain survey, you might inherit a range of costly problems. Our detailed inspections can identify numerous issues, including:

  • Cracks and Fractures: Often caused by ground movement or wear and tear, leading to leaks and potential subsidence.
  • Collapsed Pipes: A severe issue that can cause significant blockages, flooding, and require extensive excavation to repair.
  • Tree Root Ingress: Invasive roots finding their way into pipe joints, causing recurring blockages and structural damage.
  • Displaced Joints: Pipes that have shifted, creating ledges where waste can snag and block the system.
  • Fatbergs and Blockages: Accumulations of fat, oil, grease, and debris that restrict flow.
  • Poor Installation or Construction Defects: Issues from when the drainage system was originally laid.
    Knowing about these problems beforehand means you won't be hit with unexpected bills shortly after moving in.
