CCTV Drain Surveys — frequently asked questions

What does a CCTV drain survey show?

The camera captures high-definition footage of the interior of your drainage pipes, revealing blockages, cracks, displaced joints, root ingress, limescale accumulation, and any sections that have collapsed or deformed. You receive the full recording along with an annotated written report.

Do I need a drain survey before buying a house?

We strongly advise it, particularly for older Bath properties where original clay or pitch fibre pipes may have deteriorated. A pre-purchase survey can uncover hidden defects that would cost thousands to repair, giving you the evidence to renegotiate the price or request the seller to fix the issues before completion.

How long does a CCTV drain survey take?

A standard residential survey in Bath typically takes between one and two hours, depending on the length and complexity of the drainage network. We walk you through the findings on site and follow up with the full report and footage, usually within twenty-four hours.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

No. When you book Bath Plumbers, there is no separate fee just for attending your property. You are only invoiced for the actual drainage work we carry out, and we confirm the price before we start.

How quickly can you arrive in an emergency?

For pressing drainage problems across Bath and surrounding areas within 25 miles, our nearest available engineer is typically on site within sixty to ninety minutes. Response times may vary during peak periods or severe weather, but we always communicate realistic arrival estimates when you call.

Are you available for emergencies?

Absolutely. Our emergency drainage team operates twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, including bank holidays. Whether it is a sewage backup at midnight in Bathwick or a flooded manhole on a Sunday morning in Widcombe, call 01225 000000 and we will dispatch an engineer immediately.
