0333 772 0123

A CCTV drain survey is the only way to see exactly what's happening inside your underground pipework. Our crawler cameras and push-rod units produce HD colour footage which we supply to you on a USB alongside a WinCan-compliant written report. Surveys are ideal for pre-purchase homebuyer checks, recurring blockage diagnostics, insurance claims and build-over agreements. Every survey includes mapping, defect grading and an honest recommendation on whether remedial work is actually required.

Our approach

We produce WinCan-standard reports that banks, surveyors and insurers actually accept — not a phone video and a rough description.

What to expect

  1. 1 Call or submit a quote request. We take your postcode, describe the problem and book the nearest available engineer — usually within the hour for emergencies.
  2. 2 On-site diagnosis. The engineer inspects and diagnoses — using CCTV where needed — before quoting. No work starts until you approve a fixed price.
  3. 3 Repair or clearance. Work is carried out using professional-grade equipment. You receive a written report on completion.
  4. 4 Guarantee. All work is covered by our workmanship guarantee. If the same issue returns within the guarantee period, we return free of charge.

CCTV Drain Survey — frequently asked questions

How much does a CCTV drain survey cost?
A standard residential pre-purchase survey is a fixed fee that includes the footage, written report and recommendations. Larger commercial surveys are quoted per site.
Do I need a survey before buying a house?
If the property is over 30 years old, has mature trees nearby, or sits on clay pipework, a pre-purchase CCTV survey is strongly recommended and often cheaper than a single future repair.
What's in the report?
A WinCan-compliant PDF with every defect graded, a pipe-run plan, photo stills of each issue and a plain-English summary of what (if anything) needs attention.
Will it identify insurance-claimable damage?
Yes. Our reports are widely accepted by UK insurers and loss-adjusters as evidence for claims involving ingress, collapse or tree-root damage.
How long does a survey take?
Most residential surveys take between 60 and 120 minutes on site, with the written report delivered within 48 hours.
