TaylorMade will always work cleanly and efficiently, ensuring that your property is left clean and tidy following our visit.
CCTV Drain Inspection
High-end CCTV equipment allows our engineers to carry out detailed inspections of drain or pipe systems that are not easily accessible. The CCTV camera quickly identifies any problems that are not immediately apparent, while also providing early detection and prevention of future issues.
After reviewing the footage and identifying any current or potential problems, and assessing the condition of the existing system, our engineers provide recommendations for any immediate or long-term action. The footage is then made available for the customer to view upon request.
Problems that can be detected:
- Collapsed piping
- Fractured piping
- Broken sections
- Vermin damage
- Tree root ingress
- Displaced joints and gradients
- Pipe intrusion
- Fat build-up
Drain Relining
If appropriate following a CCTV survey, a non-destructive and highly effective solution is drain relining.
The process involves jetting out the pipes before inserting a resin-saturated liner using a pressurised system, which ensures a tight bond to the original pipework. This forms a “pipe within a pipe” that can last for many years.
This non-destructive process eliminates the need for costly and often disruptive excavation and can be carried out by our qualified drainage engineers.
Drain Survey for Property Purchases
Our engineers can also carry out CCTV drain surveys for prospective home purchases prior to completion. We provide a detailed report upon request, highlighting any structural damage and potential future problems.
