CCTV Drainage Surveys in Wolverhampton

Need a reliable drainage inspection in Wolverhampton? Our CCTV drainage surveys deliver clear, professional insight into your underground systems — helping developers, contractors and property owners make informed decisions without excavation delays.

Using HD crawler cameras, we assess internal pipe condition and collect key data: invert levels, diameter, discharge type, flow direction and any structural defects.

Your survey includes:

  • A full PDF report with mapped observations and condition grading
  • HD video footage and high-quality stills
  • An indicative drainage layout sketch as standard
  • Optional CAD drawings when combined with topographical or measured building surveys

Whether you’re seeking build-over approval, verifying drainage assets, or buying a property, we provide trusted drainage clarity across Wolverhampton and the West Midlands.

When & Why You Need a CCTV Drainage Survey

Think your drains are just “a bit slow”? It could be something far more serious.

Here’s when a CCTV drainage survey becomes non-negotiable:

  • Buying or selling a property in Wolverhampton? A drainage survey reveals hidden issues that could derail the sale.
  • Persistent blockages or foul smells? That’s your drains trying to tell you something.
  • Subsidence or cracks near pipe runs? Damaged drains could be the root cause.
  • Major refurbishments or extensions? Councils and architects often require a pre-build drainage inspection.

Our surveys uncover:

  • Collapsed or cracked pipes
  • Root ingress
  • Silt build-up or fatbergs
  • Poor historical repairs
  • Pipe misalignments

    We’ll record and annotate everything in real time — from structural damage to minor debris build-up.

    5. On-the-spot feedback

    If you’re on-site, we’ll walk you through the findings straight away.

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.
