High-definition cameras reveal the true condition of underground pipes, helping you make informed decisions about your Braintree property.
Contact us to arrange a convenient time. We arrive at your Braintree property with self-contained survey equipment — no preparation is needed on your part.
We access the drainage system through manholes or inspection chambers and feed a high-definition waterproof camera through the entire pipe network.
The camera transmits real-time footage to a monitor, allowing us to identify cracks, root ingress, displaced joints, blockages, and other defects as we progress.
You receive a written report with annotated screenshots, a pipe condition summary, and prioritised recommendations for any repairs or maintenance needed.
Our survey technicians access your drainage system through manholes or inspection chambers, then guide the camera through the entire pipe network. The real-time footage is recorded and compiled into a comprehensive report for your records.
Local tip: Braintree properties built on former agricultural land at Great Notley may have unexpected field drain connections. A CCTV survey identifies these before they cause problems.
