CCTV Drain Survey

About Our CCTV Drain Survey Services

At London Drainage Services (LDS), we specialise in delivering comprehensive CCTV drain surveys that cater to both commercial and residential clients. Our cutting-edge CCTV technology allows for an in-depth examination of your drainage systems with minimal disruption, providing clear and precise insights into their condition and any lurking issues.

Our surveys are particularly valuable when acquiring new properties, as they ensure that the drainage system is thoroughly checked—a crucial step often missed during standard property evaluations. These detailed acquisition surveys equip potential buyers with vital information, influencing negotiations and revealing necessary repairs that might otherwise go unnoticed.

For property owners dealing with persistent drainage problems, our CCTV surveys offer a non-invasive solution to diagnose issues effectively. This is particularly useful for identifying problems such as rodent ingress, enabling timely interventions like the installation of rat blockers or repairs to compromised pipes, thus preventing further infestations.

Additionally, before the installation of new drainage systems, it is essential to evaluate the existing infrastructure’s suitability. Our pre-installation surveys identify any pre-existing conditions, such as root intrusions or collapsed pipes, allowing these issues to be addressed early in the project planning phase. This proactive approach not only saves on costs but also avoids delays during the physical installation process.

With over 20 years of expertise, LDS is renowned across London and the Home Counties for providing reliable, thorough, and actionable drainage assessments. Trust us to ensure the efficiency and longevity of your drainage system, safeguarding your property’s infrastructure for years to come.

How Our CCTV Drain Survey Services Work

Our CCTV Drain Survey provides a precise, non-invasive method to examine the condition of your drainage infrastructure. We employ cutting-edge CCTV cameras to conduct thorough inspections of pipes and drainage systems, pinpointing any blockages, cracks, or structural damage that might not be apparent from the surface. The process initiates with an initial assessment to ascertain the most suitable entry points and the appropriate camera equipment for your system’s size and layout.

Once in place, our high-resolution cameras deliver real-time footage from within the drainage pipes, furnishing our team with clear visuals of any obstructions, leaks, or signs of wear. This advanced technology allows us to swiftly and accurately identify problems, enabling precise targeting of the exact locations needing attention without disruptive excavation. Our surveys encompass both above-ground and subterranean components, offering a comprehensive overview of the entire drainage system’s condition.

After the inspection, we compile an exhaustive report that includes visual evidence and expert recommendations for any necessary repairs or maintenance. Opting for our CCTV Surveying Services is essential for early diagnosis of potential issues, helping to avert further damage and maintain the effectiveness and efficiency of your drainage installation. This meticulous, high-tech process ensures your peace of mind and contributes to the enduring performance of your drainage system.
