Frequently Asked Questions

What is a CCTV drain survey?
A CCTV drain survey uses a specialist waterproof camera pushed through your drain to record and inspect the full length of the pipe. We can identify blockages, cracks, root intrusion, collapsed sections, misaligned joints and other defects — all without any digging.
How much does a CCTV drain survey cost?
Our CCTV drain surveys are competitively priced. Contact us for a fixed quote specific to your property and drainage system. We provide a written report with footage following every survey.

Most domestic surveys take between 30 minutes and 2 hours depending on the size and complexity of the drainage system. We'll give you a time estimate when you book.
