An efficient drainage system relies on everything underground working properly and one way of checking the health of pipework is through a CCTV drain survey. Here are the five main benefits of using this innovative technology to inspect sewers.
Cost-effective
In the past, the only way of diagnosing drainage problems was through excavation, which required a lot of upheaval, which is not only costly, but also takes time. With CCTV surveys, no digging is required and it can be carried out quickly, without the need for labourers and restoration.
Preventative action
You are responsible for the drains, water pipes and plumbing fixtures on your property and maintaining them. When things go wrong, this can be a nightmare to sort out, but CCTV drain surveys allow property owners to identify issues before they get worse and repair them before the damage becomes extensive.
Precision
A CCTV drain survey is the only way of pinpointing the exact spot of a problem such as a crack, leak or blockage. The engineer who carries it out will show you images fed back from the high-res camera and explain in a report what needs to be done and where in the system.

Time-saving
CCTV surveys give quick results, with professionals able to assess the system swiftly and recommend an action plan.
Documentation
The video footage and images obtained during the survey provide valuable documentation which can be used to make decisions and for future reference.
