CCTV Drain Surveys - London/Essex/Surrey

At London Local Drains, we provide a variety of drain survey services for residential and commercial properties.

With this information, we can effectively resolve the issue and restore your drainage system.

The process involves using a camera attached to a cable to inspect the inside of your pipes. Technicians can view a live video feed above ground, allowing them to spot blockages, leaks, or damage without the need for digging. This efficient, non-invasive service minimises disruption to your home or business.

What problems can a CCTV camera survey identify?

At London Local Drains, we have extensive experience clearing drain blockages using manual methods and specialist tools. However, if conventional methods can cannot a blockage, it may signal a more serious issue within your drainage system. This is when a CCTV drain survey becomes necessary.

Blockages

Blockages are one of the most common drainage problems and can lead to flooding. A CCTV camera survey allows our technicians to pinpoint the location and cause of the blockage, whether it's debris, grease buildup, or other obstructions.
Leaks

Leaks can cause water damage, mould growth, and structural issues if left undetected. A CCTV survey helps us locate leaks, even in hard-to-reach areas, allowing for early intervention and preventing costly repairs later.
Tree roots

Tree roots often infiltrate drains in search of moisture, causing blockages and damage. A CCTV survey helps confirm root intrusion and allows for targeted repairs.

Damaged pipe joints

Loose or damaged pipe joints can cause leaks and decrease drainage efficiency. Our camera surveys allow us to inspect joints and make quick repairs to maintain the system's performance.
Cracks

Cracked pipes, caused by wear and tear, ground movement, or external pressure, compromise system integrity. CCTV surveys enable us to detect and repair cracks before they cause further damage.
Animal infestation

Drains provide the perfect environment for rodents. Our CCTV drain surveys can identify the entry points, resulting in more effective rodent control treatment and your peace of mind.

Pre-purchase CCTV surveys

Buying a home is often the biggest investment people make, so ensuring the property is free of costly hidden issues is essential. A homebuyer's or pre-purchase drain survey can uncover problems that a standard survey may miss, potentially saving you significant money by identifying drainage concerns early.

Build-over CCTV surveys

A build-over survey is crucial when extending an existing property, as it may involve building over drains or public sewers. Using CCTV technology, these surveys provide a detailed view of the drainage or sewer system layout, helping to determine if a build-over agreement is necessary before construction begins.

Party wall drain surveys

A party wall drain survey is conducted when construction work is planned near or on a shared wall - often between two properties - where there are shared drainage systems. This survey ensures that any construction work does not interfere with the existing shared drainage system, helping to avoid disputes or damage between property owners. It often focuses on drains, sewers, or pipes along or near the shared boundary line.
