CCTV Drain Survey in London

CCTV drain survey in London: what the price includes

• 01
  Recorded and mapped

  Full video, defect log and a sketch of the run with distances, yours to keep and to show anyone.

• 02
  Pre-purchase surveys

  The £165 that renegotiates house prices: drains are the expensive unknown under every older property.

• 03
  Recurring-blockage answers

  The third clearance of the same drain is the wrong purchase; the survey that ends the cycle is the right one.

• 04
  Insurance-grade reports

  Written to the standard claims handlers expect, with stills of each defect.

• 05
  A report a solicitor or insurer will accept

  Footage on its own is not much use to anyone. You get a written report with a plan, chainage to each defect, WRc-standard coding and a clear statement of who owns the length in question, which is the format homebuyer surveys and insurance claims are actually assessed on.

Local conditions we work around

Most of London still drains through Victorian infrastructure, much of it combined sewers carrying foul and surface water in the same pipe. Two consequences follow. Heavy rain can surcharge the system and push water back up through the lowest gully in a property, which is why some basements flood in a storm without any blockage at all. And the older clay runs beneath gardens and pavements have joints that tree roots find, so root intrusion is one of the most common things our cameras record.
