Drain Dye Testing
We confirm how drains connect and spot misconnections with a simple, effective dye test.
Need to Confirm What Connects Where? Here's How We Help
When drainage problems are recurring, intermittent, or happening across a large commercial site, dye testing is one of the fastest ways to prove what connects where.
Our engineers will introduce a non-toxic coloured dye into the drain run being tested, then observe where it appears in the network to confirm connectivity and flow direction. You'll get clear findings, plus recommendations for any further investigation or remedial work needed.
