If you are considering buying a house, a drain survey could potentially save you thousands of pounds.
We have carried out many surveys which have highlighted severe structural surveys, unbeknown to the vendor.
Build over/near surveys should always be carried out when building near local authority sewers & the relevant permissions obtained prior to works commencing.
When a contractor employs us for a drain survey, our technicians will arrive onsite with a mobile CCTV camera to insert into the pipework. Once inside, the camera’s operator will investigate and highlight any structural faults or defects, both on the footage and in their notes. We record the entire survey onto video or DVD, which is included in a computer-generated report sent directly to the customer.
We have invested in the latest camera equipment to provide the best possible recordable image & the reporting software.
Some surveys can be carried out and emailed to clients on the same day.
We carry out electronic sonar tracing to locate exact positions for excavations & drain mapping, used to avoid damaging drains during construction/excavation.
We have engineers operating in all areas however
please note all calls are answered by central control in Bristol.
