CCTV drain surveys:-

CCTV Drain Surveys are a really important and useful tool when it comes to identifying more serious drainage problems. Sometimes, it’s not obvious what the true cause of the blockage is and your engineer will need a closer look at your drains. A CCTV camera inspects the system from the best position - inside the pipe. It is therefore ideal for finding structural damage or defects. Clear away Drainage Services has cameras capable of surveying drains with internal diameters ranging from 25mm to 1200mm.A CCTV drain survey the cost of an emergency repair and inconvenience after you have purchased your property.

For larger diameter pipes the cameras are mounted on electrically driven tractor units with pan and tilt options for increased visibility. A real time appraisal can be given to the client immediately whilst on site if required.
A comprehensive computer generated report is prepared by our trained operatives working to WRC classification protocols and standards. This, together with copy of the video survey recorded onto a DVD disc, will detail any faults within the system together with our observations, recommendations and a fully costed estimate for any remedial works that may be required.
For small domestic drains, using CCTV cameras can help an engineer to establish the condition of a drain or drainpipe and the root of the drainage problem. CCTV drain surveys can find areas of root penetration in drains and drainpipes and uncover any bad joints or structural defects that might require a drain repair or drain maintenance work.
Cheaper and easier than digging out, exposing and breaking into a drain, CCTV drain surveys are now the preferred method of investigating structural drainage conditions. For home buyers, a full survey and test could save you the inconvenience and extra cost of emergency repair work after you have purchased the property. CCTV drainage engineers will feed a camera directly through your drains and use close up imagery to record any problems they find. Following the survey, you will be provided with a DVD copy of our findings in addition to a comprehensive written report in industry standard format. If significant faults are found, the report will offer recommendations for repair.
For home owners, as well as peace of mind, a drain survey can uncover the causes of persistent blocked drains such as collapsed pipes which restrict the flow or waste water. Our trained engineers can unblock drains for you. Where there is an underlying problem such as collapsed drains, then the additional cost can sometimes be covered by your buildings insurance. We often liaise with insurers to manage everything for you and fix the problem for you as well. There are many things that could affect the working order of your drains, from fractured pipes and tree roots that cause drains to crack and collapse.
