What is a Post-Construction Drain Survey, and Why Do You Need One?

Think of a post-construction drain survey as a vital health check for your new property's underground pipework. It's a detailed inspection completed after all building work is finished, but before you officially take ownership or a project is signed off. Even with the best builders, drainage systems can sometimes have design flaws, accidental damage during construction, or leftover debris from the work. Our expert team uses advanced CCTV drain survey technology to get a clear picture of the pipes' internal condition, spotting anything from minor snags to significant structural issues. This check is incredibly important to help you ensure everything’s up to scratch and working perfectly.

Our Precision CCTV Drain Surveys for Completed Projects

At Clear Blocked Drains, we use cutting-edge CCTV drain survey equipment to carry out our comprehensive inspections. This isn't just a quick peek; it’s a detailed, recorded examination of every inch of your new drainage system. A high-resolution camera, controlled by our skilled engineers, navigates through the pipes, sending back live footage. We can pinpoint exact locations of issues like cracks, misaligned pipes, blockages from building debris, or even structural weaknesses. Once the survey is completed, you'll receive a full written report, often with video evidence and a clear plan of any recommended actions. This information is invaluable if you need to discuss issues with your builder.

Common Issues We Find During Post-Build Drainage Checks

You might be surprised what can go wrong underground, even in a new build. During our surveys in Wigan and nearby areas, we frequently uncover problems such as:

  • Debris and Blockages: Leftover building materials like concrete, rubble, or even tools that accidentally fell into open pipes.
  • Cracks or Fractures: Damage caused by heavy machinery passing over pipes, or poor installation.
  • Misaligned Joints: Pipes not properly connected, leading to leaks or blockages over time.
  • Incorrect Gradients: Drains not sloped enough for water to flow efficiently, causing standing water and blockages.
  • "Blind" Connections: Drains that haven't been properly connected to the main sewer system.
  • Root Ingress: Although less common in brand new systems, sometimes existing tree roots can already be a problem if groundworks disturbed them.
    Catching these issues early helps you resolve them before they cause significant problems and cost you more money.
