A CCTV drain survey is an essential tool for identifying any potential issues with your drainage system before they become more serious and expensive to repair. It can also provide valuable information about the condition of your pipes which can help you make informed decisions about future maintenance or upgrades that may be necessary. If you think your drainage system may need inspecting then it’s worth considering having one carried out by an experienced engineer who will be able to provide you with detailed reports on its condition.

How is a CCTV Drain Survey Done?

CCTV provides an up-close view of the inside of the pipes
A CCTV drain survey is an important tool for assessing the condition of a drainage system. It can be used to identify any potential problems or blockages in the system, as well as providing a detailed report of the condition of the drains. In this article, we will take a look at how a CCTV drain survey is done and why it is so important.
What is a CCTV Drain Survey?
A CCTV drain survey is an inspection of the internal structure of a drainage system using closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras. The cameras are inserted into the drains and are able to provide an up-close view of the inside of the pipes, allowing any potential issues to be identified quickly and easily. This type of survey can be used for both residential and commercial properties, as well as for larger scale projects such as sewer systems.
Why is it Important?
A CCTV drain survey can help to identify any potential problems with a drainage system before they become more serious and expensive to repair. It can also help to detect any blockages or damage that may have occurred over time, allowing for quick repairs or replacements to be made before further damage occurs. Additionally, it can provide valuable information about the condition of the pipes, helping you make informed decisions about future maintenance or upgrades that may be necessary.
What Does it Involve?
The process of carrying out a CCTV drain survey involves inserting specialised cameras into the drains in order to get an up-close view of their internal structure. The cameras are connected to monitors which allow engineers to see what’s going on inside the pipes in real time, allowing them to identify any potential issues quickly and easily. Once they have identified any problems, they will then be able to provide advice on how best to address them.
How Long Does it Take?
The length of time required for a CCTV drain survey will depend on several factors such as the size and complexity of the drainage system being inspected and how many cameras are being used during the inspection process. Generally speaking though, most surveys will take between one and two hours from start to finish.
