We are committed to providing our clients with the highest quality drainage solutions. One of the most effective tools we utilize to diagnose and address drainage issues is CCTV drain surveying. This advanced technology allows us to inspect the condition of your drainage system accurately and non-invasively. In this blog post, we will explore the benefits of CCTV drain surveys, common issues detected during inspections, and how these services can save you time and money.

What is CCTV Drain Surveying?

CCTV drain surveying involves the use of high-definition cameras equipped with advanced technology. These cameras are inserted into the drainage system to provide a real-time view of the internal condition of the pipes. This method is highly effective and allows us to identify potential problems without the need for excavation or digging.

Key Benefits of CCTV Drain Surveying

  1. Accurate Diagnosis of Issues:
    The primary advantage of CCTV drain surveys is their ability to accurately diagnose problems within the drainage system. Whether it’s cracks, blockages, root intrusions, or corrosion, our technicians can visually assess the condition of your pipes and pinpoint the source of the issue. This leads to more targeted and effective solutions.
  2. Non-Intrusive Inspections:
    CCTV technology offers a non-invasive way to inspect your drains. Instead of digging up your yard or disrupting your property, we can conduct thorough inspections with minimal disturbance. This is particularly valuable in urban areas like Portsmouth, where preserving the landscape and access is essential.
  3. Early Detection:
    Regular CCTV inspections can help identify potential issues before they escalate into serious problems. Catching drainage issues early can save you from costly repairs and extensive damage in the future. We often recommend periodic CCTV surveys as part of routine maintenance.
  4. Comprehensive Reporting:
    After conducting a CCTV drain survey, we provide our clients with a detailed report. This report includes video footage of the drains, findings, and our expert recommendations for necessary repairs or maintenance. This transparency helps you make informed decisions regarding your drainage system.
  5. Rat Surveys:
    In addition to standard inspections, CCTV surveys can also be utilized for rat surveys. These surveys help identify potential entry points for rats or other pests in your drainage system. By detecting these issues early, we can implement preventive measures to protect your property from infestations.
  6. Cost-Effective Solutions:
    The use of CCTV technology can save you money in the long run by reducing the need for unnecessary excavation and repairs. By providing a clear understanding of the condition of your drains, we can recommend targeted maintenance or repairs, ensuring that your money is spent wisely.

Common Issues Detected During CCTV Drain Surveys

  • Blockages: Frequently caused by fat buildup, debris, or foreign objects, blockages can lead to slow drainage or sewage backups.
  • Cracks and Leaks: Over time, pipes can become damaged due to pressure or shifting soil, leading to cracks that can cause water loss and structural issues.
  • Root Infiltrations: Tree roots often seek moisture and can intrude into drainage lines, causing significant blockages and damage.
  • Corrosion: Aging pipes may show signs of wear and tear, leading to corrosion that compromises their integrity.
