CCTV sewer inspection — Drain and sewer service
State why the inspection is needed, such as recurring blockage, a suspected defect or a pre-work condition record. Ask for the surveyed runs and deliverables to be defined so a short camera look is not confused with a documented drainage survey.
Service scope
Camera-based examination of accessible drainage pipes with recorded observations and identified inspection limits. The service supplies evidence about the surveyed pipe interior; it does not automatically prove the condition of inaccessible sections, ownership or every cause of flooding.
What is normally included
- Camera inspection of agreed pipe runs
- Recorded footage and observations
- Identification of surveyed and uninspected sections
What is not included
- A repair included without agreement
- Certifying an entire system from incomplete camera coverage
Typical tasks
- Review the inspection objective
- Identify available access and pipe runs
- Inspect accessible sections by camera
- Record observations and limitations
- Provide agreed footage and a findings report
What to include in your brief
- Reason for the inspection
- Drainage plans if available
- Previous blockage or repair history
- Required report and footage format
- Access to the relevant pipe runs
Choosing the right professional
Confirm that the provider will identify where footage was taken and explain blind spots or obstructions. Ask whether cleaning is needed for visibility and whether that preparation is part of the survey price.
Important considerations
- Deposits or standing water can limit visibility
- A camera survey may not establish the cause of every observed defect
