Buying a new property is exciting, but it also comes with its fair share of stress. Once contracts are exchanged, any hidden faults become your financial responsibility.

Why Christchurch properties need specialist drainage inspections
The properties across Christchurch, Bournemouth, and Poole vary hugely, from modern flats to historic period homes. Older properties in Dorset frequently feature pitch fibre pipes, which are notorious for blistering and collapsing over time.

What exactly happens during a CCTV drain survey in Christchurch?
We send a small, high-tech camera down the pipes of the property you want to buy. These camera inspections give us a clear view of the underground system. You get to see exactly what is going on down there without anyone digging up the garden. This drainage inspection spots blocked pipes, tree root damage, or collapsed drains before you sign the contract.
Why should I book a home buyer drain survey before purchasing a property?
Fixing underground pipes costs thousands of pounds. If you buy a house with broken drains, you have to pay the bill out of your own pocket. Getting one of our home buyer drain surveys gives you total peace of mind because you will know the exact condition of the pipes. If we find problems, you can ask the seller to fix them or lower the asking price to cover the repair costs.
Will I receive proof of the drainage inspection results?
Yes, you get comprehensive pre-purchase drain reports. We write these in plain English so they are easy to read. The report includes a full breakdown of any faults, high-quality images from the camera, and a clear quote for any needed repairs. You can confidently hand this document straight to your mortgage lender or solicitor to keep the house buying process moving.
