Overview
See what is wrong, fix it once
Most drainage problems are not visible at the surface. A persistent smell, a slow gully, a damp patch in the garden — they all point to something happening underground that needs proper investigation, not a guess and a quote.
Call2Drain runs CCTV-equipped survey vehicles with crawler cameras and high-resolution recording, so every defect we identify is documented on photo and video. You see the footage. You decide what gets fixed. We email a full structural report within 24 hours of the visit — formatted for sharing with insurers, surveyors or building control.
When repairs are needed, our preference is always no-dig: patch lining, pipe relining, pitch-fibre rebuilds and joint sealing — all carried out from existing access points without digging up your garden, driveway or shopfront. Where excavation cannot be avoided, we do the digging properly, reinstate the surface neatly, and finish on the day we said we would.
This category also covers two specialist jobs that often follow a survey: root cutting (removing tree-root intrusion that has cracked an older clay drain) and drain pest control (sealing the ingress points rats use to get from the sewer network into a property).

Evidence first
See the footage, then decide what gets fixed
Most drainage faults are hidden underground, so we investigate before we quote. Crawler cameras record every metre of the run, a sonde locates buried pipework, and you get a full structural report — photos, video and a drainage plan — emailed within 24 hours, formatted for insurers, surveyors and building control.
When repair is needed our preference is always no-dig: patch lining, full relining and joint sealing carried out from existing access points, with no trench across your Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Essex & London garden, drive or shopfront. Where excavation is unavoidable we dig precisely and reinstate neatly.

Common questions
How long does a CCTV survey take?
A standard domestic survey takes 1–2 hours on site, depending on the layout. The written report follows within 24 hours, with photos and video clips of every defect.
Is a CCTV report accepted by insurers?
Yes — our reports are formatted to WRc and OS19X standards, which is what insurers and loss adjusters expect. We can liaise directly with the adjuster if it helps.
What is patch lining and is it permanent?
Patch lining is a no-dig repair where a resin-impregnated sleeve is inserted at the damaged section and cured in place. It bonds to the original pipe and is rated for 50+ years.
Will you guarantee your repairs?
Yes — every repair carries a 12-month workmanship guarantee in writing. Patch lining itself carries a 10-year material guarantee from the lining manufacturer.
