Unblocking drains
Unblocking drains is a vital service aimed at restoring the smooth flow of water through the drainage system. Whether caused by debris, grease build-up, or other obstructions, professional drain unblocking techniques effectively clear blockages and help prevent potential damage or disruptions to your property.
Repairs and maintenance
Drain repairs and maintenance are essential for ensuring the longevity and optimal functionality of your drainage system. Regular maintenance, including inspections, cleaning, and preventive measures, helps identify potential issues early on and mitigate the risk of blockages or structural damage. When repairs are needed, skilled professionals can address damaged or faulty drainpipes, resolving issues promptly to maintain the integrity of the drainage system.
Grease traps
Commercial grease trap installation and maintenance play a crucial role in preventing grease-related blockages and maintaining the smooth operation of the sewage system. These specialised traps effectively capture and separate grease, preventing it from entering the drainage system and causing clogs. Regular maintenance ensures proper functioning, prolongs the lifespan of the grease trap, and reduces the risk of costly repairs or disruptive blockages.
Commercial
Commercial drainage repairs are essential to address any issues or damage that may occur in the drainage system of commercial properties. Whether it’s a collapsed pipe, leaks, or other structural problems, timely repairs can prevent further damage and restore the functionality of the drainage system. Expert technicians assess the situation, determine the appropriate repairs, and implement effective solutions to minimise disruptions and maintain the smooth operation of the commercial premises.
Rodent prevention
Rodent prevention in drains is crucial to safeguard properties against unwanted rodent access. By installing one-way gates within the drainage system, the entry points for rodents can be effectively blocked, preventing their infiltration into the property. These gates allow wastewater to flow freely out of the property while preventing rodents from using the drainage system as a means of entry.
Gutter clearance
Gutter clearance is an essential service that helps maintain the integrity of your property’s guttering system. With the innovative GutterVax telescopic system, our company can efficiently clear gutters up to four stories high without the need for ladders or scaffolding. This advanced technology ensures thorough cleaning, removing debris and blockages, and promoting proper water flow, protecting your property from potential water damage caused by overflowing gutters.
CCTV survey
CCTV drain surveys provide an ideal and efficient method for locating issues within drainage systems. By using advanced camera technology, our surveys capture detailed video footage of the drain’s interior, allowing us to identify blockages, leaks, or other potential problems. We provide a comprehensive report along with the video footage within 48 hours, offering valuable insights to help you make informed decisions about necessary repairs or maintenance.
Homebuyer Drain Surveys in Chislehurst
Buying a property in Chislehurst? A Homebuyer Drain Survey can identify drainage problems that may not be visible during a standard property viewing. Before committing to the purchase, a CCTV inspection can give you a clearer picture of the condition of the property’s underground drainage.
A Drain Survey for Home Buyers is particularly useful for older properties, homes with mature trees or properties where drains run beneath extensions, patios or driveways. Finding a problem before exchange gives you time to discuss the issue with the seller and consider potential repair costs before the property becomes your responsibility.
Common drainage problems found before purchase
Drainage defects are often hidden underground, so they may not be apparent when viewing a property. A CCTV survey can identify issues including:
- Cracked or fractured pipes
- Collapsed or displaced sections
- Tree root ingress
- Blockages and debris build-up
- Open or damaged pipe joints
- Groundwater entering the drainage system
- Gaps that could allow pests to enter
Identifying these problems before buying can help you understand the condition of the drainage system and avoid unexpected repair costs after moving in. These are among the issues BN Drainage’s CCTV engineers commonly identify during surveys.
How does a homebuyer drain survey work?
Our drainage engineer accesses the drainage system through an existing access point and guides a high-resolution waterproof CCTV camera through the pipework. The camera records the inside of the drains in real time, allowing defects to be located without excavation.
The inspection checks the accessible pipework for structural damage, blockages, root ingress and other faults. The survey can also establish the exact location of defects and provide photographic evidence. BN Drainage’s CCTV surveys include a written drainage report and footage, with reports produced to the MSCC5 industry standard.
For a more detailed explanation of the inspection and reporting process, see our CCTV drain survey service.
