Signs You Need a CCTV Drain Survey
A CCTV drain survey is one of the most effective ways to identify hidden drainage problems before they become expensive emergencies. But how do you know when you need one?
Recurring Blockages
If you are experiencing repeated blockages in the same drain, there is likely an underlying issue that simple clearing cannot resolve. A CCTV survey will reveal the root cause – whether it is tree roots, a collapsed section, or a build-up of scale.
Slow Draining
Drains that consistently drain slowly, even after clearing, often indicate a partial blockage or structural issue further down the line. A camera inspection can pinpoint the exact problem.
Bad Smells
Persistent drain smells suggest trapped waste or a damaged seal somewhere in the system. A CCTV survey identifies these issues quickly and accurately.
Buying a Property
If you are purchasing a property, a pre-purchase drain survey is highly recommended. It reveals any hidden drainage problems that could cost thousands to fix after completion.
