CCTV drain survey in Middleton St George

Example 1

A buyer in Middleton St George booked a drain camera survey before exchange — the vendor said the drains were fine, but slow bathroom wastes suggested otherwise.

We ran the camera from an accessible chamber and recorded the full run: connections, material changes and any defects. Footage showed a displaced clay joint catching waste — not a disaster, but real leverage for the solicitor. They received watchable files plus a short written summary.

Result: They negotiated with evidence instead of guesswork, and had a clear repair scope for after completion.

Example 2

A terraced home in Middleton St George kept suffering the same kitchen sink backup every few months after quick clears elsewhere.

Instead of another blind rod pass, we surveyed when the line had enough flow to see. The camera picked up dense root ingress on a bend — the kind of fault that feels like a “normal blockage” until you look inside the pipe.

Result: They stopped paying for repeat clearances and moved to a quoted fix based on what the camera proved.

Example 3

After heavy rain, a driveway gully in Middleton St George stopped taking water; the owner worried a pipe had collapsed under the hardstanding.

We surveyed from the gully toward the main, logging inverts and looking for breaks, ovality or rubble. The line was sound with a trapped silt section — no structural collapse — so major excavation wasn’t justified on the evidence.

Result: They avoided a dig-first approach, addressed the real restriction, and kept the footage for their records.
