What affects the cost of a drain survey?

Property size

More drain runs and inspection chambers mean more camera time and a larger report — standard homes are at the lower end, larger properties and commercial premises at the upper end.

Accessibility

All drain access points need to be reachable. Drains buried under decking, landscaping or vehicles may require extra time to locate.

Distance from Leeds

We cover all of West Yorkshire within 20 miles. Properties toward the edge of our coverage area may carry a small travel supplement.

Urgency

Same-day or next-day emergency bookings carry a supplement. Standard bookings (2–5 days notice) are priced at the base rate.

Is a drain survey worth the cost?

A CCTV drain survey typically costs £100–£250. A collapsed drain repair costs £3,000–£15,000 or more, depending on depth and access. For homebuyers, that's a straightforward calculation.

For existing homeowners with recurring blockages, a drain survey identifies the root cause — so instead of paying a drainage company to clear the same blockage every few months, you know exactly what needs fixing once and for all.

For insurance claims, a survey report is often required to support the claim. The cost of the survey is usually far less than the insurance excess.

We're independent of any repair contractor

Some drainage companies offer "free surveys" — then push you toward expensive repairs. We're a specialist survey-only company. Our report tells you what we find, not what earns us the next job.

Cost FAQs

Is the written report included in the price?

Yes. Every survey includes a full written condition report and the HD CCTV footage at no extra charge.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

No. Our quoted price is all-inclusive. There is no call-out charge, no hidden travel fee, and no charge for the report.

Can I get an exact price for my property?

Yes. Fill in our contact form with your address and the type of survey you need. We'll respond with a fixed price — usually within a few hours.

Is a pre-purchase drain survey more expensive than a standard survey?

Slightly, because the report needs to be formatted for legal and mortgage purposes. Typical cost is £120–£225 for a residential property.

Do you cover commercial properties?

Yes. Commercial surveys are priced on request. Contact us with the address and size of premises for an accurate quote.
