CCTV Drainage Surveys in Bromley

Need reliable drainage data ahead of construction or design work in Bromley? Our CCTV drainage surveys give you a detailed look inside your underground pipework — without the cost or disruption of excavation.

We use high-definition crawler cameras to inspect the drainage network and provide accurate data on condition, depth, diameter, flow direction and discharge type.

Every survey includes:

  • A PDF report with clear condition grading and mapped findings
  • HD video and high-res stills
  • An indicative connectivity sketch as standard
  • Optional CAD outputs when paired with a topographical or measured building survey

Ideal for pre-build due diligence, build-over approvals and utility asset management across Bromley and the South East.

Drainage Trouble in Bromley? Here’s When to Act

Not all issues come with flashing red lights.

In fact, some of the worst drainage problems creep in quietly — until your garden’s waterlogged or the basement starts smelling musty.

Here’s when you definitely need a survey:

  • Before buying a home — so you don’t inherit cracked or collapsed pipes.
  • Before building works — to check drainage positions and structural health.
  • When drainage is slow, noisy or smelly — usually a sign of blockage or backflow.
  • After flooding or ground movement — to assess if the pipework’s shifted.
  • When insurance requests it — for water ingress or structural damage claims.

In short: if you’re not sure what’s going on beneath your property, this survey makes it clear.

    What you will get

    Why Terrain Surveys Is the Go-To in Bromley

    On-the-Ground Knowledge

    We’ve surveyed everything from narrow Victorian drains in Shortlands to modern plastic systems in Biggin Hill.

    That local insight saves time — and keeps things efficient on-site.

    Accreditation That Matters

    Here’s the boring (but essential) bit. We hold:

    • ISO 9001 for quality control
    • Construction Line Gold membership
    • Certifications with TSA, CICES, and Acclaim
    • Fully trained, CSCS-accredited field teams

    That means our work meets the strictest standards — whether it’s for council planning, insurance validation or structural engineers.

    A Team You Can Count On

    All of our surveyors are fully qualified in CCTV defect classification and reporting.

    You won’t get a vague report or generic footage. We break down what’s wrong, where it is, and what to do next — with zero guesswork and no jargon.

    How Our Bromley Drainage Survey Works

    Let’s keep it simple.

    1. We start with a call.

    You tell us what’s going on. We’ll advise on the best approach and get you booked in quickly — usually within 48 hours.

    2. We turn up with the right kit.

    3. We inspect your drains.

    Live-feed footage reveals every defect — root ingress, cracking, displaced joints, fatbergs — you name it.

    4. We log and analyse everything.

    Using certified defect codes (IS EN 13508-2), we compile a full record of findings and chainage.

    5. You get your report. Fast.

    Within 2 working days, you’ll get a comprehensive digital report with video files, site photos, and clear next steps.

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.
