Reasons To Have Your Drains Surveyed

A CCTV drain survey is one of the most effective ways to, quite literally, get a clear picture of what’s going on in your drains. We’ll use a state-of-the-art, 4K camera to examine the inside of your drainage system and find out exactly what the issues may be. We’ll be able to find everything from cracks and blockages to tree roots and even rodent problems.

Taking a Preventative Approach

When your drains start to go wrong, the problems can quickly get out of hand. One issue can cause a domino effect leading to far more costly repairs. The longer an issue is left untreated, the worse this can get.

Think of it the same way you would a medical issue. Your body might keep functioning while you're ill but that illness can also lead to more problems if you don’t know about it. The earlier you catch an issue, the easier it is to put it right.

Everything You Need to Know

This is where we come to the biggest benefit of getting a CCTV drain survey: it’s exhaustive. Instead of fixing a symptom without knowing the root cause, a CCTV drain survey allows you to see everything that could go wrong. This lets you deal with all the problems in one go which is far, far more cost effective.

Furthermore, a drain survey may even help you to fix problems you had no idea were being caused by your drains. Quite often, the first signs of a blockage can be as simple as unusual smells or increased flooding, both of which can be easy to write off as one-time occurrences unless you know better.

Last but certainly not least, a drain survey can give you absolute peace of mind, which is especially valuable if you’re looking at buying a property.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    How much does it cost to clear a drain in the UK?

    Drain jetting costs between £70 and £175 on average. Drain jetting is the most effective technique a professional drainage repair service provider in London can use. It thoroughly removes any obstructions, resulting in clear pipes and eliminating immediate drain issues. The process also removes other debris that’s building up along the length of the pipe, preventing further problems in future.

    Can a plumber fix blocked drains?

    While some plumbers will attempt to tackle a blocked drain, their expertise mainly lies with water coming into your home rather than going out of it. So a plumber can fix dripping taps, install a new sink or repair leaky pipes internally. But a drainage services company is better to resolve issues with drains and wastewater leaving your property.

    When should you call a plumber for a clogged drain?

    If your sink is blocked or your toilet is overflowing, you can call a plumber, but if it’s your drains that are clogged, emitting a bad smell or can’t be unclogged with a plunger, it’s time to call a local drainage service. They have the equipment and experience to resolve larger problems.

    What does a drainage company do?

    Drainage companies offer a variety of services, from the installation of drainage systems to homes and businesses to resolving problems with existing systems. Good drainage companies will use CCTV inspection to evaluate the state of existing pipes and can remove blockages, suggesting replacement or repairs to pipework when necessary.

    What are the types of drainage?

    A drainage system is a series of channels that carry excess water away from humans, animals, or plants. There are two main types in UK homes:

    • Surface drainage systems: including downspouts, gullies in your garden, and linear drains – carrying away excess rainwater.
    • Grey water systems: including your kitchen and bathroom wastewater from sinks, toilets, baths and showers.

    What is the importance of drainage?

    Drainage removes excess water away from the property. Rainwater is drained away to prevent standing water which can cause soil erosion and damage the fabric of your home. Grey water from kitchens and bathrooms is conducted into the main sewage system for cleaning and purifying. Without drainage, homes would flood or become contaminated with sewage.
