Drain Unblocking & CCTV Surveys in Platts Heath

Yes. We carry out full CCTV drain surveys in Platts Heath and across Kent using drain camera equipment. Every survey includes a written condition report with footage. Survey cost depends on the length of pipework and the level of reporting you need, so we quote before we attend.

We strongly recommend a pre-purchase CCTV drain survey for any Platts Heath property, particularly older homes with clay drainage pipework. A drain survey can identify cracked pipes, root ingress, or partial collapses that are not visible to the naked eye and are not covered by a standard structural survey. If your solicitor, lender or insurer needs the report in a particular format, tell us when you enquire so it is quoted for correctly.

Cost depends on how much pipework needs inspecting and the level of reporting you need, so we quote before we attend rather than publish a figure that may not apply to your property. Call 07572 433507 for a free no-obligation quote.

Yes. Tree root ingress into drainage pipes is one of the most common causes of persistent drain blockages in Platts Heath and across Kent. Roots find hairline cracks in clay or pitch fibre pipes and grow inside them over time. We remove roots using high-pressure cutting equipment and recommend no-dig relining or a resin patch repair afterwards to seal the defect the roots came through.

The most common drainage problems we attend in Platts Heath and across Kent are: blocked drains from fat, grease, and wipes; tree root ingress into older clay pipes; joint displacement caused by clay soil movement; and partially collapsed drain runs in period properties. A CCTV survey identifies the exact cause of any persistent drainage problem.

Call Tom directly on 07572 433507 - he personally answers all calls and will give you a free assessment of your drainage issue. Alternatively you can use the contact form on our website. We cover Platts Heath and all surrounding Kent towns and aim to respond to emergency calls as quickly as we reasonably can.

You get a full camera inspection of the drain run, a written condition report and the recorded footage - and if a solicitor, lender or insurer needs the report in a particular format, tell us at the quoting stage.

A blockage that keeps returning usually points to a deeper fault - a cracked pipe, root ingress or a buildup the rods cannot fully clear. A CCTV survey finds the root cause so you stop paying for repeat call-outs.

Weekend and bank holiday work is arranged case by case rather than guaranteed. The office is open Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the number is the same at any time: 07572 433507. If we cannot answer, leave a message and urgent calls are returned as soon as possible.

Yes - the cured liner forms a smooth structural pipe inside the old one without excavating your Platts Heath garden or driveway. The expected service life depends on the liner product and the condition of the host pipe, and we will confirm both before installing.
