Cctv Drain Surveys in Ashford , Surrey

Responsibility depends on the location and what the pipe serves. You are responsible for the private drains within your property boundary that serve only your home. If the blockage is in a shared pipe (where a neighbour's waste joins yours) or a lateral drain outside your boundary, it usually falls under the remit of Thames Water. Our CCTV survey identifies exactly where the fault lies, so you know if you need us to fix it or if it is a matter for the water authority.

We provide a high-definition camera run through the entire system, from the internal soil vent pipe to the final inspection chamber. You receive a structural condition report, a map of the drainage layout, and clear footage of any issues found, such as pitch fibre deformation, fractures, or silt buildup. We also provide a fixed-price quote for any recommended remedial work to help with your property purchase.

Yes. Once our CCTV inspection confirms the location of a crack or leaking joint, we can often use no-dig drain repair technology. This involves inserting a resin-impregnated liner or a localised patch sleeve. The material bonds to the inside of the existing pipe, creating a "pipe within a pipe" that is often stronger than the original, all without any digging or disruption to your property.

We use the camera to locate the exact point of entry. Our engineers then use mechanical root cutters and high-pressure water jetting to strip the roots away. To prevent them from growing back, we usually recommend a structural patch lining to seal the joints where the roots were entering. This provides a permanent fix and restores full flow to your system.

No. Simply Drainage 24-7 operates with zero call-out charges, day or night. Whether you need an emergency blocked drain investigation at 2:00 AM or a scheduled homebuyer survey, you only pay for the work we do. We provide transparent, upfront quotes before any camera enters the pipe.

If your drains are slow despite using plungers or shop-bought chemicals, there is likely a deeper issue. Our camera inspections find mineral descaling, heavy grease buildup, or structural dips in the pipe where water pools and debris collects. We identify the exact spot so we can clear it effectively with mechanical rotary coring or high-pressure jetting.
