What is Drainage Survey?
When you buy or sell a property, you want to have peace of mind and know that your new house will be a home. Unfortunately, some properties have fractures, cracks and broken pipe work that could cause ground erosion that could develop into structural problems, such as subsidence or potential blockages.
How Long does a Drain Survey Take?
The best way to estimate the duration of the survey is:
An average 3 Bedroom house (1 hour per bedroom)
To conduct a full visual inspection
Then jet and clean the drains and inspection chambers
To conduct the CCTV survey
Review and complete the report
Surveys are truly as unique as the property and can vary because of obstructions in the drains.
We only charge per hour and you are issued your report before we leave site.
