Cctv Drain Surveys in St Ives, Cambridgeshire

It is basically a high-tech health check for your pipes. We send a small, remote-controlled camera down into the system to get a clear view of what is going on underground. Instead of guessing why a drain keeps blocking, we can see the exact cause. Whether it is a stubborn fatberg, a nasty crack, or tree roots making themselves at home, the footage shows us everything. For homeowners in East Cambridgeshire, it is the quickest way to get answers without digging up the garden.

When you are buying a new place in Soham, the last thing you want is a hidden drainage disaster waiting for you after move-in day. Most standard home surveys do not look inside the pipes. Roberts Drainage Ltd provides a detailed camera survey that spots any drainage defects or structural issues before you sign the contract. It gives you the evidence you need to ask the current owners for repairs or a price reduction if the system is not up to scratch.

Many older properties across Cambridgeshire have drainage layouts that do not appear on any official plans. Our drain mapping service uses the camera and special tracing gear to pinpoint the exact route and depth of your pipes. This is incredibly useful if you are planning an extension or a new driveway and need to know where you can safely build without hitting a main line.

You will not just get a verbal "all clear." We provide a full professional report that details the condition of your pipes. This includes the high-definition footage from the camera survey and a clear explanation of any faults we found. If there is a drain blockage or a collapsed section, we will show you exactly where it is and give you a straightforward plan to fix it. This report is also perfect for insurance claims or building control requirements.

Yes, foul smells usually mean there is a buildup of waste or a break in the pipe that is letting sewer gas escape. A drain inspection allows us to look for standing water or "bellies" in the pipe where waste sits and rots. Once we identify the spot, we can use high-pressure water jetting to clear it out or suggest a repair to stop the smells for good.

Most domestic surveys in Soham take between one and two hours. We work quickly to make sure there is minimal disruption to your day. Because we use portable, modern equipment, we do not need to bring heavy machinery onto your land just to take a look. Once we finish the on-site work, we process the footage and get your report over to you as soon as possible.
