What Exactly Happens During a CCTV Drain Survey in Winslow?

Think of it like a medical check-up for your pipes! We carefully feed a high-definition camera, attached to a flexible rod, into your drainage system. As it travels through the pipes, our experienced engineers watch the live footage on a monitor above ground. This allows us to spot everything from minor cracks and blockages to tree root intrusion or even a full pipe collapse. It’s a non-invasive way to get to the root of any problem, providing an accurate diagnosis without digging up your garden or driveway. Once we’re done, we’ll talk you through our findings and provide a comprehensive report.

Winslow Homebuyers: Don't Risk Costly Drain Surprises!

Buying a house is a huge investment, and the last thing you want is to discover expensive drainage problems after you’ve moved in. A pre-purchase CCTV drain survey is an essential part of your due diligence when buying property in Winslow. It can reveal hidden defects like cracked pipes, old pitch fibre drains, or blockages that a standard home survey won't catch. Spotting these issues before you complete the purchase means you can negotiate repairs with the seller or walk away from a potential money pit. It's a small investment that could save you thousands.

Tired of Recurring Blockages in Your Winslow Home or Business?

If you're constantly battling with a slow-draining sink, a gurgling toilet, or persistent foul odours, simply clearing a blockage might not solve the real issue. Our CCTV drain surveys in Winslow are perfect for pinpointing the exact cause of recurring problems. Is it a collapsed pipe? A build-up of fat and grease? Or perhaps tree roots have found their way in? Our cameras will identify the culprit, allowing us to recommend a targeted, permanent solution, rather than just a temporary fix. Get to the bottom of the problem for good.

Planning an Extension or Landscaping in Winslow? Map Your Drains First!

Embarking on a new building project or transforming your garden? You'd be surprised how often hidden drains cause unexpected delays and damage. Before you start digging foundations or laying new paving, a drain survey can accurately map out your existing drainage system. This prevents accidental damage to pipes, helps you comply with building regulations, and ensures your new extension or landscaping doesn’t interfere with vital sewer lines. It’s about smart planning and avoiding frustrating, expensive setbacks for your Winslow project.

FAQ

CCTV Drain Survey Questions

Find answers to common questions about our professional CCTV drain surveys in Wokingham.

Why Are My Drains Always Blocking? A Camera Can Tell You Why!

+

If you're fed up with constantly clearing the same blocked drain or dealing with strange smells, it's incredibly frustrating. A CCTV drain survey is the best way to get to the bottom of these nagging issues. Instead of guessing, we use specialist camera equipment to look right inside your pipes, spotting exactly what's causing the problem. It could be anything from tree roots growing into cracks, a build-up of grease, or even a collapsed pipe section. Once we see it, we can properly fix it.

What Happens During a CCTV Drain Inspection?

+

When we come to carry out a CCTV drain survey, our experienced engineers feed a small, waterproof camera into your drain system. This camera sends back a live video feed to a monitor, allowing us to see every inch of your pipes in real-time. We can navigate around bends and through different sections, recording the whole process. It's a bit like a doctor using an endoscope, but for your drains! You get to understand what's going on without any messy digging.

What Problems Can a Drain Camera Spot in My Pipes?

+

A thorough drain camera survey can uncover all sorts of hidden issues that you'd never see from above ground. We regularly find things like cracks, fractures, or even completely collapsed sections of pipework. Tree roots are a common culprit, pushing their way into joints and causing blockages. We also spot misaligned pipes, built-up scale or fat, and even items that shouldn't be in the drains at all. Knowing the exact problem means we can offer the right solution, saving you time and money.

Is a CCTV Drain Survey Messy or Disruptive to My Home?

+

Absolutely not! One of the biggest advantages of a CCTV drain survey is that it's a completely 'no-dig' solution. We only need access to a manhole or an existing access point in your drainage system. Our camera equipment is compact, and the whole process is clean, quiet, and doesn't disturb your home or garden. We do all the work from the surface, so you won't have to worry about any mess.

Considering a New Home? Why a Pre-Purchase Drain Survey is Essential

+

Buying a new home is a huge investment, and the last thing you want is a nasty surprise after you've moved in. A pre-purchase CCTV drain survey gives you total peace of mind. We'll check the condition of the entire drainage system, spotting any hidden defects like cracks, blockages, or pitch fibre issues that could lead to expensive repairs down the line. It's a small upfront cost that can save you thousands and help you make an informed decision about your new property.

What Happens After Our Drainage Camera Inspection?

+

Once we've completed the CCTV drain survey, you'll receive a detailed report. This report includes a full explanation of our findings, complete with high-quality video footage and still images of any problem areas. We'll clearly highlight any issues we've found and, crucially, provide clear, actionable recommendations for any necessary repairs. If repairs are needed, we'll give you a transparent, no-obligation quote for the work, whether it's a simple clean or a more complex repair using 'no-dig' relining.

Do Insurance Companies or Councils Need a Drain Survey?

+

Yes, often they do! If you're making an insurance claim for drain damage, your insurer will almost certainly ask for a professional CCTV drain survey report. This report provides the hard evidence they need to process your claim. Similarly, if you're planning to build over or near a public sewer, the local water authority will require a drain survey to check the sewer's condition both before and after your building work. We provide industry-standard reports that are perfect for these situations.
