FAQ: Types of drain mapping surveys
Drain mapping surveys are highly sought-after, with many companies looking for a reliable drain survey provider with experience and knowledge of complex issues.
To help you learn more about drain mapping surveys we have rounded up some commonly asked questions below…
What is a drain mapping survey?
A drain mapping survey is a detailed investigation into the drainage network to establish where the system runs. Drain mapping is part of large construction projects where the drainage system needs to be identified before planning and building work can commence. Failure to do this could lead to detrimental issues for the drainage onsite and damage to the drainage system.
What will a drain mapping survey tell me?
A drain mapping survey will provide you with detailed plans of the drainage system, this will help you to make informed decisions about property development and any potential changes which will need to be made to the drainage network before building begins.
CCTV Drain Surveys or drain mapping survey?
A CCTV drain survey is very similar to a drain mapping survey, however, drain mapping surveys are more suitable for large construction projects where a detailed map/plan of the drainage system is required. Instead, CCTV drain surveys provide accurate imagery of the inside of the drainage network when issues are occuring which need to be resolved.
I’ve just bought a house; can I have a drain mapping survey?
For domestic clients we recommend a CCTV drain survey, as this will give you an accurate picture of any issues or damage within your drainage network. However, if you are planning to extend or develop parts of your property a drain mapping survey is advised.
How much does a drain mapping survey cost?
The cost of drainage mapping surveys will vary depending on the size of the project, the information already understood about the drainage system and, if the results of the survey mean any work is required to resolve issues within the network.
