    What Will A Cctv Drain Survey Usually Find?

    At Drain Zone, CCTV drain surveys are not always necessary, but they can be crucial in understanding what's blocking your drain. Our team utilizes advanced CCTV technology to conduct thorough surveys of the affected area. Drains typically block for two reasons: either something has been improperly disposed of, or there’s a structural issue with the drain run or gully. By using this technology, we can perform a detailed camera inspection to identify the root cause of the problem.

    All our vans are equipped with the latest CCTV drain survey technology, enabling our engineers to inspect the condition of the affected drain comprehensively. The process involves using waterproof push-rod cameras that can navigate deep inside the drain network. These cameras provide clear images of the drain's internal sections, displayed on a monitor for you to view. Based on these findings, our drainage professionals will compile a thorough and detailed report, including recommendations for the next steps to resolve your drainage issue. If possible and preferable, we will fix the problem on the spot. If not, our flexible engineers will schedule any necessary repairs at a convenient time for you.

    Faqs On Cctv Drain Survey?

    A CCTV drain survey is a diagnostic technique used to inspect the condition of drainage systems using specialized cameras. It involves inserting a small camera attached to a flexible cable into the drain, allowing for real-time video footage of the inside of the pipes to be captured and analyzed.

    CCTV drain surveys are used to identify blockages, leaks, structural defects, root intrusion, or other issues within drainage systems. They provide an accurate assessment of the condition of the pipes without the need for costly and invasive excavation.

    The frequency of CCTV drain surveys depends on various factors such as the age of the drainage system, usage patterns, and previous issues. As a general guideline, it’s recommended to have a CCTV drain survey conducted every few years for preventive maintenance and early detection of problems.

    The duration of a CCTV drain survey depends on the size and complexity of the drainage system being inspected. On average, a survey can take anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours to complete. Larger or more intricate systems may require additional time.

    Simple answer – No. CCTV drain surveys are non-intrusive and minimally disruptive. The camera is inserted into the drain through an access point such as a manhole or cleanout, eliminating the need for excavation or digging. Once the survey is complete, the camera is removed, and the drain is left undisturbed.

    The cost of a CCTV drain survey varies depending on factors such as the size of the drainage system, the extent of the survey, and the location of the property. You can get a free, no-obligation quote if you call our office today – 0800 088 6161
