Situations we cover in Haringey
When you need a CCTV Drain Survey
Before buying a property
A drain survey is one of the most cost-effective pre-purchase checks in London. Victorian clay drainage with root intrusion or collapse can cost £2,000-£10,000+ to repair. A £150-£250 survey before exchange can save a failed purchase or negotiate a price reduction.
Recurring blockages
If a drain blocks repeatedly despite clearing, the cause is structural — root intrusion, collapsed section or misaligned joint. A CCTV survey identifies exactly what's causing the problem so the right repair is carried out rather than repeated jetting.
For insurance claims
Subsidence and escape-of-water insurance claims often require a drain survey to establish whether drain failure contributed to the damage. Our survey reports are produced in the format required by loss adjusters and structural engineers.
London drainage facts: an estimated 70% of London's drainage is Victorian-era clay pipe. Tree root intrusion affects 1 in 3 properties on tree-lined streets. The average London pre-purchase drain survey finds at least one defect requiring attention — usually root ingress or displaced joints in the garden section.
