Why Choose a Pre-Build Survey?

Choosing a Pre-Build CCTV Survey is a crucial step in ensuring the success and compliance of your construction project. Since 2010, legislation has required property owners to ensure that building work doesn’t impede access to drains or affect public drainage infrastructure.

By conducting a survey before construction begins, you can avoid costly surprises and potential conflicts with existing drainage systems. This detailed assessment provides valuable insights for architects and contractors during the planning stage, allowing for informed decision-making.

The survey creates a comprehensive map of your property’s drainage layout, assesses the current condition of drains, and provides precise measurements of drain depths and pipe sizes.

It also helps clarify which drains are your responsibility and which belong to the local water authority. This information is particularly important when planning extensions, conservatories, or garages, as building over drains or manholes is generally not allowed. 

Common Issues Identified by Drain Surveys

By identifying any potential issues early on, you can explore alternative solutions if needed, such as drain relocation options.
