Everything you should know about CCTV Drain Surveys

CCTV drainage survey is an inspection of drains and sewers using a remote-controlled camera to determine the root cause of a drainage problem. The CCTV survey would identify any leaks, blockages, scale build-ups, and more, using a high-definition camera, instead of digging intrusive and time-consuming trenches. Our experienced professionals use the captured images to fully understand the drainage problem and deliver the drainage information in the form of a report containing recommendations for a corrective measure.

Birmingham Measured Survey specialists use an array of the latest CCTV drain survey equipment to conduct an intensive inspection that is capable of identifying any inconsistencies, and the full conditions of your drainage system.

We will visit your site armed with high-tech drainage equipment, such as waterproof push rod cameras to drive through the drainage system and remote crawlers for visual insight of the damaged or obstructed pipe. With the drainage access, we use the CCTV camera to bring real-time footage of any cracks, blockages, collapsed pipes and much more. This footage helps to compile a drain survey report to enable understanding of gravity of the drainage problem, and recommendations, such as repairs, maintenance, replacement, and restoration, given for remedy.

• CCTV drainage survey allows for remote and safe gathering of data. Our operatives do not have to enter into confined spaces which are potentially risky.
• The drainage survey allows the investigation and correction of blockages, drain, poor flow and pollution problems.
• Through drainage surveys, you can manage costs and avoid highly-damaging and drain pipe failures.
• CCTV drain surveys are used by the drawing architects and designers of construction projects to create highly accurate project plans.
• The survey reports can support planned works to conduct pipe repairs as well as replacements.

CCTV drainage surveys can capture a range of data that can help plan for urgent pipe repairs and support a PPM programme. We can collect the following data, and more, from our CCTV drain surveys:

• Map of drainage system
• Pipe lengths
• Pipe location
• Flow directions and flow rates through pipes
• Location of pipe defects

• Speed: Our specialist team can complete your CCTV drain survey within 30 minutes.
• Accuracy: The live video feed from the drainage system provides a clear view of any issues within the drainage system. This provides our surveyors with a better understanding of the size, location and any problems that may be present in the drainage system, alongside their root cause.
• Minimal Disruptions: CCTV survey technique is less invasive when compared with alternative inspection methods. The camera system does not cause damage to the drainage system because the surveyor can address the specific area where the drainage problem is located.
