The appointment was incredibly easy to arrange, they were able to fit me in far quicker than I anticipated and the service was professional and clearly explained to me. Would recommend.
Diagnose drainage issues fast
A CCTV drain camera is the most effective method of identifying problems while causing minimal disruption. From blockages to damage and structural issues, our engineers are equipped to inspect your drains thoroughly to find the cause of your problem.
Gain evidence of your current and ongoing drainage issues to help you make informed decisions about your repair and maintenance options. Whether that’s excavation, clearing, or lining, drain surveys help you find the right solution for your home. Identifying problems early also helps to reduce further damage and avoidable costs.
Our drain survey process
When you choose our drain survey service, our engineers start with drain jetting to allow us to assess the issue. From here, we use advanced equipment to provide a thorough and detailed inspection of the inside of your drain and sewer systems to detect blockages or damage.
Once we understand the problem, your local Drain Doctor specialist will recommend and then conduct the appropriate drain solution to ensure your drainage system is fully functioning again, quickly and with minimal disruption.

Frequently asked questions
If you’ve got questions about drain surveys, take a look at our FAQs or get in touch with your local team.
Drain surveys can help identify the cause behind recurring blockages, slow drainage, unpleasant smells, or flooding. They are also commonly required when buying a property or before starting building or extension work.
One of our trained engineers starts by inserting a CCTV camera into your drainage system through an access point. The camera records footage as it moves through the pipes, providing accurate mapping and identification of any issues.
While most drain surveys can take between one and two hours, it can vary depending on the size and complexity of your drainage system and how accessible the drains are.
A drain survey is commonly recommended during the homebuying process, especially for older properties. These surveys reveal hidden drainage issues that may not be picked up during a standard property survey.
