Most homeowners we speak to in Chorley tell us that buying a house was the most stressful thing they have ever done. You have had the RICS survey and the mortgage offer is in, but did you know a standard survey usually stops at the manhole cover? Imagine moving into your new dream home only to find out a month later that the lateral drains are collapsed or full of intrusive roots. By booking a homebuyer drain survey with us, you get the evidence you need to negotiate. If we find a £2,000 repair job, you can ask the seller to fix it or drop the price before you exchange contracts. It is about total peace of mind before you sign on the dotted line.

The old way of finding a leak involved a lot of guesswork and even more digging. Thankfully, those days are gone. We use high-definition 'crawler' cameras and Sonde tracing to map out your drainage system with pinpoint accuracy. Our drainage surveys can identify 'root ingress' where those lovely trees on your Chorley street have pushed into your pipes, or 'displaced joints' caused by the ground shifting over time. We even specialise in 'pitch fibre pipes' often found in mid-century Lancashire drainage systems, which can squash and fail if not monitored. The best part? We do all of this from the surface, keeping your driveway intact.

Need to show a report to your insurance company or United Utilities for a build-over agreement? We have got you covered. After our inspection, you will not just get a 'thumbs up'—you will receive a detailed Wincan report. This is the industry-standard format that includes high-definition footage and a structural condition map of your pipes. If you are planning an extension in Chorley or Adlington, this report is often a legal requirement to prove you aren't building over a public sewer. We make the paperwork easy so you can focus on your project.
