CCTV drain surveys are an effective way to see the insides of your drainage pipework and the conditions of the pipes. Using CCTV drain cameras, our drainage engineers can identify many things in the drainage system, such as cracks, open joints, root intrusions, and also blockages that may have built up over a period of time. With this information, our engineers can diagnose the results and compile a comprehensive drain survey report with a video recording.
