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
Access conditions can affect what can be surveyed. I explain any limitation clearly rather than pretending an unseen section has been inspected.
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.
Where possible, I show the customer the important findings and explain them in ordinary language.
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
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.
Can you inspect shared drains?
Often yes, although access, permission and responsibility may need to be considered where pipework serves more than one property.
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.
Who carries out the work?
Chris Peters carries out the drainage work personally.
Can you inspect older clay drains?
Yes, provided there is suitable access and the pipe can be entered safely with the equipment.
Can I send photos first?
Yes. Photos, previous reports and a short history can help me understand what may be needed before attending.
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.
Do you carry out commercial work?
Yes. Commercial drainage investigations can be planned around the property, access arrangements and reporting requirements.
Do you provide footage or findings?
The output depends on the service booked, but the important findings and recommendations are explained clearly.
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.
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 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.
