When is a cctv drain survey most useful?
A CCTV drain survey is incredibly useful when you're facing drainage problems but can't quite pinpoint the issue. If you've got persistent blockages, slow drainage, or suspect damage within your pipes, this survey is your detective. A tiny camera is sent into your drain, revealing the exact problem's location and nature, whether it's a blockage, a crack, root intrusion, or something else. It's like an X-ray for your drains, offering a clear diagnosis without digging up your property. This precision not only saves time but also ensures you fix the right thing, preventing costly trial-and-error repairs.

We often use CCTV (Closed-Circuit Television) in drain inspections to visually assess the condition of drainage systems and identify any issues, such as blockages, cracks, leaks, or root intrusion. Here's how CCTV technology works with drains:
1. Camera Insertion:
A small, waterproof camera is attached to a flexible rod or cable. This camera is designed to fit within the dimensions of the drain pipes.
2. Insertion into Drainage System:
The camera-equipped cable is inserted into the drain through an access point, such as a cleanout or manhole. It is then slowly pushed or guided through the pipe, traveling along the drain line.
3. Real-Time Visual Feed:
The camera captures high-quality, real-time video footage of the interior of the drainage system as it moves through the pipes. This footage is transmitted to a monitor above ground.
4. Remote Control and Maneuvering:
We can remotely control the movement and rotation of the camera within the drain. This helps in capturing detailed images of different parts of the pipe.
5. Detailed Inspection: Our operator views the video feed on the monitor and closely examines the condition of the drain pipes. They can identify issues such as blockages, cracks, corrosion, root intrusion, misalignments, and other abnormalities.
6. Recording and Documentation:
The inspection process can be recorded, creating a visual record that can be used for analysis, reports, and documentation. This is particularly useful for communicating findings to clients, making repair decisions, and monitoring changes over time.
7. Locating Issues:
Some of our advanced CCTV systems incorporate location tracking, which helps pinpoint the exact location of issues detected in the drainage system. This information aids in planning repair work.
8. Data Analysis:
Our experienced enginneers analyse the video footage to diagnose problems accurately, assess the severity of issues, and recommend appropriate solutions.
CCTV drain inspections provide a non-invasive and efficient method for assessing the condition of drainage systems. They help in making informed decisions about maintenance, repairs, and replacements, while minimizing the need for excavation and the associated disruptions.
