CCTV drain surveys
Find the real problem before you spend money fixing it
A camera survey sends a high-definition camera through your drains, recording everything it finds. You get a clear picture of the pipe condition, an exact location for any defect, and a written report you can act on – without anyone lifting a spade.

Questions answered
CCTV drain survey FAQs
A few useful answers before you pick up the phone.
How much does a CCTV drain survey cost?
We give a clear price before starting, based on the property size, access and number of pipes to survey. You approve the cost before any work begins.
Do I need a drain survey when buying a house?
Standard homebuyer reports do not cover drainage. A CCTV survey can reveal cracked, collapsed or root-damaged drains that could cost thousands later – and gives you evidence to negotiate if problems are found.
How long does a survey take?
Most domestic surveys take one to two hours on site. Your report and footage follow shortly after the visit.
What happens if you find a problem?
We show you the footage, explain the defect in plain English and outline the options – from simple jetting to patch lining or excavation. There is never any pressure to book further work with us.
