Taking Care of Your Drains This Winter
Drain care is always important – but the festive season can put more strain on them. So why not invest in a CCTV survey?
If you have noticed some issues with your drains this winter, why not allow us to see what the problem is? As the providers of the CCTV drain survey London property owners trust, we can pinpoint the issue in no time at all.
Festive excess
The festive season can really wreak havoc on drains, and if you are entertaining over the Christmas period you can expect your drains to bear the brunt of that. More home-cooked food can lead to oil and food fragments being rinsed away down the plughole; and if you have guests to stay that could mean more hair being rinsed away down the plughole and unsuitable materials being flushed down the toilet. We all try our best to keep bad habits in check, but sometimes things do get forgotten.
Signs to look out for
Signs that a problem is developing in your drains are:
- Unpleasant smells coming from the drain
- Slow drainage
- Raised water levels
- Gurgling sounds
If you do notice that your drains are acting up, never assume that you know what a problem will be. The above signs can indicate a wide range of issues, and without accessing your drains there’s no way of knowing what the cause is. High street products will only do so much, and you may find that those warning signs abate for a little while before returning. That’s why you should always call in the professionals.
CCTV drain survey
A CCTV drain survey is one of the easiest ways to see what is going on with your drains. Thanks to our cutting-edge equipment and constant investment in our technology, we can navigate toilet pans, trapped gullies and 45-degree bends. Our crawler units are also able to survey large diameter pipework (up to 900mm). So, there is no job that is too small or too big for us to carry out. Whether we are surveying a tight u-bend or a large industrial drain, we will tailor our services to suit each.
We will come back to you with a full report of our findings, and if any major structural work needs to be carried out, we will put together a plan for what lies ahead.
