CCTV Drain Surveys & Drainage Inspections London

What Is a CCTV Drain Survey?

A CCTV drain survey is a detailed inspection of the inside of your drainage pipes using a specialist camera. The camera is carefully guided through accessible sections of the drainage system, allowing an engineer to view the internal pipework and identify visible problems.

Unlike traditional inspection methods, a CCTV drain inspection can investigate underground pipes without immediately digging up your garden, driveway or property.

The footage helps reveal issues that may not be visible from the surface, including cracks, damaged joints, root intrusion, accumulated debris and collapsed pipe sections.

Once the inspection is complete, the findings can help determine whether your drainage system needs cleaning, unblocking, repair or further investigation.

At On Time Plumbers, we use CCTV drain surveys to help customers understand the cause of drainage problems and choose an appropriate solution based on the findings.

Step 1: Discuss Your Drainage Problem

Tell us what you have noticed, whether it is a recurring blockage, slow drainage, an unexplained smell or a suspected damaged pipe. If you are purchasing a property, let us know the purpose of the survey.

Step 2: Arrange Access to the Drainage System

Our team will establish the available access points and the scope of the inspection. Depending on the property, access may be through a manhole, inspection chamber or another suitable opening.

Step 3: Carry Out the CCTV Inspection

A specialist camera is guided through accessible pipework while the engineer examines the footage for visible obstructions, structural defects and other drainage concerns.

The areas that can be inspected depend on the drainage layout, access conditions and whether the camera can pass through the pipes.

Step 4: Review the Findings

The inspection findings help establish the visible condition of the surveyed sections and identify areas that may need attention. If a blockage prevents an effective inspection, preliminary drain clearance may be necessary.

Step 5: Discuss the Recommended Next Steps

We explain the findings and discuss suitable options where problems are identified. Depending on the condition of the drains, these may include cleaning, unblocking, further testing or targeted repairs.

Any additional work can be discussed separately so you understand the proposed solution before proceeding.
