Pre-Purchase Homebuyer Surveys
We check the real condition of a property's drains before you commit to buying it.
Rated 4.9 on Google
Drains are easy to overlook when you're buying a property, but a hidden problem, like a collapsed pipe or root damage, can be expensive to fix later. A pre-purchase drain survey shows you the real condition before you commit.
Our engineers will run a CCTV camera through the property's drainage system, check for blockages, cracks, root ingress and other defects, and give you a clear written report with footage you can use to inform your decision or negotiate on price.
