What is involved in a CCTV Drain Survey?

Drain problems can arise at any time and without much warning and can be extremely stressful to deal with if not approached quickly and correctly. Before the age of technology, to get to the bottom of drain and pipe issues there was a lot of guesswork involved and trying out different solutions to see if they could work.  It could also mean excavation for the more difficult to reach pipes, meaning digging up your garden to get to the source of the problem. Nowadays, Mersey Rod can use top of the range CCTV equipment to assess the problem quickly and precisely and decide the best course of action quickly and precisely. Read on to find out more about our CCTV drain surveys in Warrington.

 What can CCTV drain surveys in Warrington be used for?

There are a great number of things that a CCTV drain survey in Warrington can be used for – it doesn’t necessarily have to mean a large or costly emergency.

Moving to a new home – this is top of the list for most people. When you are moving to a new house, you could save yourself future hassles as well as a lot of money in the long run. By getting a drain survey in Warrington before you purchase the house, our cameras will detect anything that is not visible below ground. A blocked drain or a cracked pipe is not something that you can tell when just viewing the house. By having one of our inspections, everything that gets discussed and sorted with the seller beforehand to prevent emergencies in the future.

House maintenance – Just as if you were buying a new house, it is important to keep on top of your pipe and drain maintenance. Think of it like a spring clean! The pipes are a crucial part of the house, so you need to be checking them regularly. By using our CCTV drain surveys in Warrington, you will be on top of any potential problems before they even arise. By getting regular maintenance, you can prolong the life of your pipework and drains.

Persistent blockage – If there is a persistent blockage that keeps coming back, it might indicate a more serious problem.  By using shop bought drain unblocking chemicals or pushing a rod down to try and move the blockage you could be making the problem worse for yourself. If absolutely everything is not removed, then it could become a serious problem. The best way to tackle this is to get the team of professionals at Mersey Rod to do a full drain survey in Warrington to get to the root cause of the problem.
