Drainage issues are one of the most common causes of structural damage and long-term disrepair in London properties. A CCTV drain survey is the most accurate and efficient method of identifying underground pipe problems—without the need for excavation. Fraser Bond provides certified CCTV drainage inspections for landlords, developers, homebuyers, and block managers across Greater London.
Whether you're buying a property, managing a portfolio, or addressing persistent drainage complaints, Fraser Bond ensures that CCTV drain surveys are conducted to the highest technical and compliance standards.
A CCTV drain survey involves using a high-resolution, waterproof camera to inspect the inside of underground drainpipes and sewer lines. This diagnostic tool is essential for:
Detecting blockages, cracks, or root ingress
Mapping drainage systems for construction or extensions
Verifying drainage conditions before property purchase
Investigating leaks or subsidence around buildings
Meeting pre-tenancy repair obligations
Fraser Bond’s inspections produce a full video report, written summary, and, where necessary, a repair plan with costings—essential for insurance claims, property transactions, or contractor tendering.
CCTV drain surveys are especially relevant to the following stakeholders:
Required before new lets in some cases
Essential when tenants report slow drainage or smells
Can prevent emergency callouts and legal disputes
Identifies hidden defects during the pre-purchase process
Avoids surprises that delay or derail sales
Supports future extension planning or basement digs
Validates the condition of communal or shared pipework
Provides reporting for leaseholder communications
Helps coordinate service charge-funded maintenance
All surveys are conducted by drainage professionals using the latest technology and are backed by full reporting:
HD CCTV drain footage
CAD drainage system mapping (if required)
Written defect and compliance report
Recommendations for remedial work
Support for insurance and warranty claims
We also provide follow-up services such as jetting, root cutting, drain relining, or excavation repairs when required.
