FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our professional CCTV drain surveys and drainage services in Accrington, Lancashire& The North West of England.

Do you have to unblock the drain before running a CCTV camera through it?

+

Yes, because if the pipe is full of standing water, silt, or raw sewage, the camera lens will just be staring into black sludge. We carry out high-pressure water jetting first to wash the debris away and clean the pipe walls. Once the water is flowing freely, the camera can travel through easily and record a clear view of the pipe's structural condition.

Can a CCTV drain survey locate hidden manholes buried under our patio or driveway in Clayton-Le-Moors?

+

Yes, our survey cameras are fitted with built-in radio sondes that transmit a signal through the ground. As we guide the camera through the pipe, we use a digital locator on the surface to map the exact route and depth of the run. This pinpoints missing inspection chambers and buried junctions under paving, lawn, or tarmac without any exploratory digging.

How does the camera show where rats are breaking out of the sewer?

+

The camera highlights telltale signs of rodent activity, such as uncapped redundant branch lines, chewed rubber seal rings, or collapsed pipe crowns where rats have burrowed through into the sub-base. We also look for dirty smear marks along the pipe walls and washed-out aggregate surrounding displaced joints. Finding these entry points gives us the exact location needed to place a stainless steel rat blocker or carry out a targeted patch repair.

Can your camera fit down small internal waste pipes and gullies, or just main sewers?

+

We carry multiple camera setups on our vans to inspect everything from small internal waste pipes to main roadway sewers. For standard 100mm and 150mm underground drains, we run high-resolution push-rod systems with self-levelling heads that keep the picture upright. For tighter 50mm to 75mm sink runs, soil stacks, and rainwater gullies, we switch to compact, flexible micro-cameras that easily navigate sharp bends.

Will heavy rain in the BB5 area stop you from carrying out a drainage camera inspection?

+

Light or normal rain is not a problem, but severe downpours can send large volumes of murky storm runoff rushing through combined systems, which blinds the camera lens. If water levels in the pipe are running too high to spot hairline cracks or displaced joints, we pause until the surge recedes or divert the flow. We need the pipe clear of standing water so every structural defect is captured cleanly on screen.
