If you are currently in the middle of buying a house near Winstanley or over towards Carr Mill, you have probably got a mountain of paperwork to deal with. While a standard RICS survey looks at the roof and the walls, it usually ignores what is happening under your feet. We have seen plenty of folks move into their dream home in St Helens, only to find a collapsed pipe or a massive root ingress a month later. A professional homebuyer drain survey gives you total peace of mind—and potentially some serious negotiation leverage. If we find a £2,000 repair job, you can ask the seller to fix it or knock the cost off the sale price before you exchange contracts.

Nobody wants their driveway or lawn ripped up just to find a blockage. That is why we use "no-dig" technology and sonar tracing to map out your system precisely. Our crawler cameras can navigate deep into your sewers, spotting everything from displaced joints to a buildup of FOG (fats, oils, and grease). If you are planning an extension, we also provide build-over surveys required by United Utilities. We use Sonde and Tracing to find the exact path and depth of your pipes, providing CAD-ready mapping so your architect knows exactly where they can build safely.

After we have finished our inspection, we do not just give you a thumbs up and leave. You will receive a comprehensive drainage report using industry-standard Wincan software. This includes high-definition footage of the interior of your pipes and a clear breakdown of any faults found. These reports are exactly what mortgage lenders, insurance companies, and water authorities need to see. Whether it is a simple case of needing some high-pressure drain jetting or a more complex issue requiring drain relining, you will have the evidence in your hands to make an informed decision.
