How the Investigation Works
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
Where possible, I show the customer the important findings and explain them in ordinary language.
Repeated clearance without understanding the cause can cost more in the long run. Where a pattern is developing, evidence is usually worth obtaining.
A camera image on its own is not enough. The important part is interpreting what it shows and deciding whether the finding is relevant to the problem.
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 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.
How quickly can work be arranged?
Availability varies, so it is best to call or WhatsApp with the location and a brief description of the problem.
Will you recommend the least disruptive repair?
Where repair is needed, I explain suitable options such as local patching, lining or excavation according to the actual defect.
Can you inspect older clay drains?
Yes, provided there is suitable access and the pipe can be entered safely with the equipment.
Do you cover Hanwell?
Yes. I cover Hanwell and surrounding areas, subject to availability and the type of work required.
Do you provide footage or findings?
The output depends on the service booked, but the important findings and recommendations are explained clearly.
How much experience do you have?
I have more than 35 years of practical drainage experience, including previous council drainage work.
Do you charge VAT?
No VAT is added to my prices.
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.
What happens if part of the drain cannot be reached?
I explain the limitation and what additional access or clearance may be needed. I do not describe an unseen section as inspected.
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 I send photos first?
Yes. Photos, previous reports and a short history can help me understand what may be needed before attending.
