CCTV Drain Surveys in Teesside
A CCTV drain survey is the most accurate and reliable way to assess the condition of your drainage system. A specialist camera is inserted into the drain and transmits live footage to a monitor, allowing the engineer to identify any defects, blockages, or areas of concern. Teesside Drainage connects you with experienced local specialists who provide detailed CCTV survey reports.
When Do You Need a CCTV Drain Survey?
A CCTV drain survey is recommended in a number of situations. If you are buying a property, a drain survey can identify any existing problems before you complete the purchase. If you are experiencing recurring blockages or drainage problems, a survey can identify the root cause. If you are planning an extension or new build, a survey can map the existing drainage layout and identify any potential conflicts.
What Does a CCTV Survey Identify?
- Blockages and build-up of debris
- Cracked, fractured or collapsed pipes
- Root ingress from trees and shrubs
- Misaligned or displaced joints
- Corrosion or deterioration of pipe materials
- Incorrect pipe gradients
- Vermin ingress
What Do You Get?
Following a CCTV survey, you will receive a detailed written report with a recording of the survey footage, a description of any defects found, and recommendations for any remedial works required. This report can be used for insurance purposes, property transactions, or as the basis for a repair specification.
