Here at Certified Drain Surveys our services include Home Buyers Drainage Surveys. These are now being recommended by building surveyors on houses over 10 years old. Some mortgage lenders and insurance companies are asking for these as part of the lending agreement. These CCTV drain surveys are designed to establish three key points about the drainage system on the property:
- Structural Condition of pipework
- Drainage Misconnections
- Ownership – private or water company
Why Choose Certified Drain Surveys for your Home Buyers Drainage Survey
There is no good reason not to have a drainage survey carried out – drain surveys remain valid for 5 years and should be kept as historical record. Survey reports can be re-used within a five year period as part of a sellers pack meaning they retain their value. Commercial / Industrial properties should also be considered for all of the above mentioned reasons. Here at Certified Drain Surveys we specialise in CCTV drainage surveys and Home Buyers Drainage Surveys.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who stands to benefit from a drainage survey?
Everybody Concerned!
When should these surveys take place?
Prior to exchange of contract or asap to prevent slow down of the sale if defects are found
How do I find a certified surveyor?
Right here!
How can I be sure they are fully certified?
Always ask to see certification certificate and ID cards issued by the NADC to every certified drainage surveyor. Non certified companies will not have access to these and will not carry the certified contractor logo on their listing.
Who is responsible for ensuring this information is collated?
The building surveyor should ensure that their clients have a survey carried out but it is ultimately up to the buyer, never buy a property without a full drain survey.
