What the Service Covers
A CCTV camera is passed through accessible drainage pipework to examine its internal condition. Depending on the service, the inspection may look for roots, fractures, open or displaced joints, deformation, deposits, standing water, poor connections, previous repairs or evidence relevant to a property transaction or insurance matter.
The value comes from matching the inspection to the question being asked. A homebuyer survey, build-over check, defect investigation and commercial survey may require different coverage and reporting.
When This Service Is Appropriate
This service is appropriate when evidence is needed before purchase, repair, building work, an insurance decision or investigation of recurring symptoms.
Chris’s Professional Advice
The most useful investigation is the one that answers a specific question. Before starting, I consider the symptoms, history and layout so the work remains focused.
Drainage systems often cross boundaries or connect with shared pipework. Ownership and responsibility may need checking before repairs are arranged.
Repeated clearance without understanding the cause can cost more in the long run. Where a pattern is developing, evidence is usually worth obtaining.
What Happens Next
I first establish the reason for the visit and the most useful access points. I then carry out the relevant clearance, inspection or investigation, explain the findings and discuss proportionate options. Where another trade, pest controller, insurer or structural specialist is more appropriate, I say so.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you help with insurance evidence?
Yes. Insurance-related investigations can record the condition and location of relevant defects, although the insurer decides what evidence and cover they accept.
Do you cover Limpsfield?
Yes. I cover Limpsfield and surrounding areas, subject to availability and the type of work required.
Is there a call-out charge?
There is no separate call-out charge. The price and scope are discussed as clearly as possible before work starts.
Can a survey help before buying a house?
Yes. A homebuyer drain survey can reveal defects and maintenance issues that are not visible during a normal property viewing.
Who carries out the work?
Chris Peters carries out the drainage work personally.
Can you inspect after a blockage has been cleared?
Yes. This is often the best time to inspect where a blockage has been recurring or the cause remains uncertain.
Can roots be seen during an inspection?
Usually yes. Root ingress often appears clearly, although heavy blockage or standing water may need clearing before the full extent can be assessed.
Will I receive clear advice?
Yes. I explain the important findings in plain English and distinguish between urgent work, sensible maintenance and items that may simply be monitored.
Can you identify displaced or open joints?
Yes. Joint condition is one of the common features assessed during CCTV work.
Will a survey always find the cause?
A survey often provides valuable evidence, but access, submerged sections, inaccessible branches or non-drainage causes can limit what can be confirmed.
Can you investigate a recurring smell?
Yes. Persistent smells can be linked to drainage defects, poor seals, trapped waste or other building issues, so the likely sources need assessing.
What does Homebuyer Drain Surveys involve?
The exact process depends on the reason for the visit, but it normally includes checking access, investigating the relevant drainage run, recording findings and explaining the result.
