Chris Peters Plumbing and Drainage

A Practical Approach

Rat activity can sometimes be linked to damaged or poorly connected drains, redundant pipework, broken inspection chambers or openings that allow movement towards a building. However, drains are only one possible route.

A responsible investigation considers the drainage evidence alongside possible entry through wall cavities, floors, roofs, service ducts, neighbouring properties and external gaps. Where a drainage defect is found, the repair should be targeted at the proven route rather than based on assumption.

When This Service Is Appropriate

This service is appropriate when there is a reasonable possibility that drainage defects are contributing to rat access, especially where activity is repeated or concentrated near toilets, floors, kitchens or drainage routes.

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.

Where possible, I show the customer the important findings and explain them in ordinary language.

Drainage systems often cross boundaries or connect with shared pipework. Ownership and responsibility may need checking before repairs are arranged.

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.

Nearby Areas Covered

I also cover Cranleigh, Crowhurst, Deepcut, Dorking, East Clandon, East Horsley, East Molesey and other parts of Surrey.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a CCTV survey prove rat entry?

It can identify drainage defects and possible routes, but the overall evidence from the property must also be considered.

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.

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.

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 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.

Will repairing a drain always solve the rat problem?

Not always. Drain repairs can close an underground route, but proofing and pest-control work may also be needed elsewhere.

Do you provide footage or findings?

The output depends on the service booked, but the important findings and recommendations are explained clearly.

Do you charge VAT?

No VAT is added to my prices.

Can you inspect shared drains?

Often yes, although access, permission and responsibility may need to be considered where pipework serves more than one property.

Do you carry out commercial work?

Yes. Commercial drainage investigations can be planned around the property, access arrangements and reporting requirements.

Can you inspect older clay drains?

Yes, provided there is suitable access and the pipe can be entered safely with the equipment.

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.
