A CCTV drainage survey is an advanced inspection method that uses high-resolution, waterproof cameras inserted directly into your drainage system. These CCTV drain cameras travel through pipework to capture live video footage of the internal condition of your drains.
Unlike traditional inspection methods that required excavation, a modern drainage CCTV survey is completely non-invasive. Cameras are inserted through existing manholes or inspection chambers and transmit real-time footage to monitoring screens above ground. This allows our engineers to assess the entire drainage network safely and efficiently.
We use push-rod cameras for smaller domestic pipes and crawler units or robotic cameras for larger diameter systems. Integrated LED lighting ensures even the darkest pipe sections are clearly visible, while telemetry and distance measurement systems pinpoint the exact location of defects.
A professional drainage camera survey can identify:
Every inspection is recorded, enabling detailed analysis and permanent documentation of your drainage condition.

A homebuyer drain survey is strongly recommended before purchasing a property. Standard building surveys rarely include a drainage inspection. A professional cctv drainage survey London service uncovers hidden problems, helping you avoid unexpected repair costs and negotiate property prices confidently.
If you’re planning an extension or construction project, a drainage cctv survey maps the existing network and checks structural condition. This is essential for building on agreements and compliance with local authority requirements.
Recurring blockages, slow-draining sinks, foul odours, or multiple affected drains often indicate deeper structural issues. A targeted cctv survey drainage inspection identifies the root cause quickly and accurately.
Cracked pipes, collapsed sections, ground subsidence, and tree root intrusion require immediate investigation. Our drainage CCTV surveys locate the exact problem area without unnecessary excavation.
