CCTV Drainage Surveys in Eastbourne

Planning works in Eastbourne? Our CCTV drainage surveys provide fast, accurate insight into underground drainage without breaking ground — helping you stay compliant, reduce risk and make informed design decisions.

We use HD crawler cameras to inspect internal pipe conditions and supply a clear, actionable report detailing pipe diameters, invert levels, flow direction, discharge type and overall structural integrity.

What you’ll receive:

  • A concise PDF report with condition grading and observations
  • High-quality video footage and still images
  • Indicative drainage layout as standard
  • Optional CAD deliverables when combined with a topographical or building survey

A smart, non-invasive way to support build-over approvals, pre-build checks and asset mapping on commercial sites.

When & Why Eastbourne Properties Need a CCTV Drainage Survey

Eastbourne’s coastal climate can present unique drainage challenges. Consider booking a CCTV drainage survey if you:

  • Experience persistent drainage issues such as slow-flowing water, blockages, or foul odours
  • Own older properties in areas like Old Town or Meads, often affected by ageing pipe networks
  • Suspect tree-root ingress—common in leafy neighbourhoods like Hampden Park and Upperton
  • Need assurance on drainage condition before buying, selling, or renovating property
  • Require documented proof of drainage condition for insurance or regulatory purposes

Our CCTV inspections detect problems early and provide valuable information on the condition and connectivity of your system.

Terrain Surveys Ltd have carried out a first class service of locating a drain pipe under my garden. Particular praise must go to Gareth and Euan, the onsite operatives who performed a first class survey on an extremely hot day. Consideration and care was exercised in my and my neighbours garden. Praise must also go to Sue in the office. All requests and questions were quickly responded to. Thank you.
