Sallie and her team at Drainage TV would like to thank all their customers for their support during 2020 in light of the COVID situation, and would like to help first-time home buyers with some advice on home surveys. As they explain, home surveys can range from basic to structural, on a sliding scale of charges, and generally most people will choose the cheapest option their mortgage lender will accept. However, what many people don’t realise is that the more the survey includes, the less likely they are to have issues in the years to come. Plumbing checks are usually included in a report, but are the drains being surveyed too?

Drains are often overlooked by home buyers which is a mistake many first-time home buyers make, but by getting a CCTV drain inspection, property buyers can prevent unpredictable and expensive drainage repairs in the future, and a CCTV drain survey reveals problems such as drain blockages, collapses, fractures and root obstructions. The last thing you need when purchasing a new property is having to repair these pricey problems. Drainage TV Ltd complies with all council standards, and all of their operators are fully qualified. They have experience providing reports and information to architects, engineers, surveyors and the council.

The domestic CCTV camera records colour images, has a sonar location device and includes self-levelling capability. This makes it perfect for inspecting private drainages, mapping the drain layout and inspecting water tanks. By using CCTV drain cameras you can avoid the need to hire plumbers and drainlayers in the initial years of living in your new home. Your drain survey will include an accurate diagnostic report and camera footage, as well as Drainage TV’s repair and/or replacement recommendations for the property drains and pipelines.
