🚨 NOT ALL DRAINAGE CCTV SURVEYS ARE CREATED EQUAL! 🚨
When it comes to underground drainage, a poor-quality CCTV inspection can be almost as bad as having no survey at all.
We are consistently coming across drainage CCTV surveys where the footage is:
❌ Poor quality or difficult to see
❌ Too dark or out of focus
❌ Missing important sections of the drainage system
❌ Not showing the condition of joints, connections or defects clearly
❌ Missing defects such as cracks, displaced joints, fractures, root ingress or damaged pipes
❌ Supplied without proper reporting or recommendations
A CCTV camera being put down a drain doesn’t automatically mean you have received a proper drainage survey.
🔎 A professional inspection should aim to identify the condition of the drainage system, including the pipe material, direction of flow, connections, joints and any visible defects. Where appropriate, the system should also be traced and accurately identified.
🏠 Buying a property? Don’t rely solely on a poor-quality or incomplete drainage report.
Hidden drainage defects can potentially lead to expensive excavation, repairs and disruption after you move in.
At MANGO Plumbing & Drainage, our drainage inspections are carried out with professional CCTV equipment, with findings reviewed and reported to help give homeowners, buyers and property professionals a clearer understanding of what’s happening underground.
