At SR Surveyors, we provide comprehensive drainage surveys to identify hidden issues within your property’s drainage system. Using advanced inspection technology, our surveys give you a clear understanding of the condition, layout, and performance of your underground drainage network.
Drainage problems are often out of sight until they cause serious damage. A professional drainage survey allows potential problems to be identified early, helping you avoid costly repairs, structural damage, and disruption.
What Is a Drainage Survey?
A drainage survey is a detailed inspection of the drainage system serving a property. Modern surveys commonly use specialist CCTV cameras inserted into pipes to capture live footage of the internal condition of drains and sewers. This technology allows surveyors to assess underground drainage without excavation, making it a fast, accurate and non-intrusive way to diagnose issues such as blockages, cracks or collapsed pipes.
