Although remaining outside the prospective home buyers attention, functional drainage is essential for maintaining a safe and healthy household. A pre-purchase drainage survey identifies drain problems prior to purchase.
Common Drain and Pipe Problems
Fractured Pipes, Collapsed Drains, Leaks, Broken Manholes, Tree Root Intrusions are just a few of the common drain and pipe problems that the prospective purchaser can acquire from the previous owners with pre existing drainage problems. Repairs can be costly, when you least need them, especially after purchasing a new home with all the associated expense that goes with it.
The Survey and Inspection
With the use of CCTV Technology all surface water and waste water drainage is surveyed and manholes inspected. Full video of the survey is recorded and a full comprehensive report is compiled, highlighting any defects and structural problems present. A detailed remedial plan with cost will be provided.
