Drainage systems are hidden underground, which means that the ignorance of drainage maintenance can have a large impact on homes. These drains and sewage areas tend to degrade quickly, which can lead to various structural issues. Home owners need to determine the root cause of drainage trouble, and a CCTV survey could be ideal way of doing this.

Good quality CCTV cameras are very affordable these days, which has had an effect on the price of CCTV surveys. The surveys are usually followed by major drainage cleaning. CCTV surveys of drains involve inserting a small CCTV camera into the drainage system to spot any hidden problems. These surveys can also be used as preventive measure to spot potential problems, without the need to dig any holes.

CCTV surveys of pipes, sewers and drains offer an exact visual and cost effective means of spotting drainage problems. They identify the source and help in determining the best repair options.

The benefits of CCTV surveys:

• A CCTV assessment can be implemented without too much disturbance.
• They easily locate damage and blockage areas.
• They pin point troublesome areas of drains without the need for costly exploratory holes in the ground.

A repair programme is set up after the problem is found and while a hole is dug, you can be assured that it will not lead to any increase in costs. Many commercial companies use drain surveys as part of their regular maintenance plans.

Through the use of a CCTV survey, you can be sure that you can find any problems quickly and that any repairs run as smoothly as possible.
