A CCTV drain survey is a comprehensive inspection of your drainage system. We use the latest digital imaging equipment to examine your system in real time for potential issues in your plumbing. If that hasn’t enticed you, here are five undeniable benefits of having a CCTV drain survey.
Immediate Results
One of the best things about a drain survey? You get immediate results. This is particularly useful given the critical nature of drainage faults — it’s important to have drainage issues repaired as quickly as possible. We can tackle the problem as soon as it arises to prevent further structural damage and knock-on effects.
Cost Effective
Another benefit is cost-efficiency. The process itself is not overly expensive, but the long-term payoff is where you’ll find value. Repeated callouts to repair recurring problems are more detrimental to your wallet. CCTV surveys are good value for money because of their accuracy and speed, unlike blind callouts that can’t determine the fix. With a drainage survey, we can isolate the issue and resolve it, saving you hard-earned cash in the long run.

Accurate Diagnosis
Due to the nature of our drainage surveys, the results are extremely accurate. This is because we can see the issue in real time. You wouldn’t want a surgeon operating blindly, so this is no different. This precision is not something you’d find with standard engineering callouts, as they may not have the proper tools to locate deep-rooted or long-standing problems. Save yourself time and money by investing in a CCTV drain survey today.
Minimal Disruption
The beauty of CCTV drain inspections is that we don’t need to perform full excavations on your property to find the issue. The process of a drainage survey is quiet, effective and non-intrusive. Once a problem has been detected, we can isolate the location and perform works on the site without ripping up your flower beds.
Great For New Property Owners
If you are considering purchasing a new property, arranging a drain survey with Drain & Tank will be beneficial for detecting problems in the drainage system. While it may seem pointless to invest in this before you’ve made a decision, the knowledge you gain could be a deciding factor. For example, if the property has no drainage hiccups, you can be confident in the knowledge that you won’t have to spend money on repairs in the near future.
On the other hand, detecting vital drainage issues can reduce the sale price of a property, or you can have these problems rectified before you move in. Either way, it’s useful to be aware of the state of your drains so there are no nasty surprises. Purchasing a new home without critical information is risky, so we’d encourage investing in a CCTV survey. You’ll thank us!
