CCTV Drain Surveys in Woodley

How cctv drain surveys works in Woodley
1
Book Your Survey
Contact us to arrange a time that suits you. We bring our own survey kit to your Woodley property, so you do not need to prepare anything. We only need clear access to your drains and manholes, because the camera goes in through them.
2
Camera Insertion
We reach the drain through a manhole or inspection chamber, since this gives the best path for the camera. Then we feed a waterproof high-definition camera along the whole pipe network. Because the camera is small, it reaches places that a person cannot.
3
Live Inspection
The camera sends live footage to a monitor as we go. This lets us spot cracks, roots, displaced joints and blockages while we work, because the camera shows what we cannot see. You can watch the screen with us, since seeing the fault makes it easier to understand.
4
Detailed Report
You get a written report with annotated screenshots and a summary of pipe condition, so you have a clear record. It also lists any repairs or upkeep you need, in order of urgency. You can then decide what to fix first, and what can wait, because not every fault is urgent.

We survey Woodley homes step by step and record every drain route. We also assess pipe condition along the way. The report is clear and suits property sales, insurance and upkeep plans. We explain the findings in plain words, because a Woodley survey is only useful if it makes sense to you.
