First, we’ll find an entry point, usually a manhole and we’ll take all safety precautions before we get started. Once we’ve done our checks, we introduce a specialist CCTV camera into your drainage system.
We’ll navigate the tighter, smaller pipes, longer stretches and wide diameter drains all with the same expertise. In real-time, the camera lets us see exactly what’s going on down there and record any issues we find as they happen.
We’re looking out for the usual culprits of cracks, blockages, tree roots. After the survey, we’ll put together a report for you. It’ll include a map of the pipes and pinpoint any problems we’ve discovered. You’ll get the full report and video within 48 hours, so there’s no waiting around.
