What is a CCTV Drain Survey in Lichfield?
Using sophisticated remote camera technology that gathers video and other useful data that may be used to identify drainage problems, a CCTV drainage evaluation assesses drainage systems.
To check for damage and possible causes of that damage, you must place a camera into your drainage system. A CCTV camera system helps us discover issues more quickly and precisely, which helps us properly carry out repairs.
Types of CCTV drainage camera systems in Lichfield
Robotic crawlers and push CCTV drainage cameras are the two major camera kinds that could be employed for your CCTV drain inspection in Lichfield.
A panel inside a specialist truck controls a robotic crawler camera. The camera is mounted in a durable shell, and all it needs to move through the pipe is an electric motor to power its wheels. These cameras are currently offered in a wide range of diameters, ranging from 150mm to 2000mm, thanks to technological advancements. LED lighting additions allow for the recording of HD-quality video as well. We can determine precisely what is truly causing the clogged drains thanks to the articulating arms, rotating camera heads, plus zoomable lenses that are part of our cameras.
When the pipe has a smaller surface area, is vertical, or may have bends that are difficult for a robotic crawler to operate, it is more usually used with a push CCTV drainage camera. The thin, flexible rods that come with these cameras may be coiled into a tiny reel and used to guide the user down the pipe. To view the camera’s path, a monitor is positioned above the reel. These cameras also include LED lights to check the pipe inside and find problems.
What type of issues can a CCTV drainage survey find in Lichfield?
A CCTV inspection may be used to quickly, discreetly, and affordably identify drainage problems, such as small drain blockages that can be quickly rectified or severe drain or pipe collapses that need immediate attention.
During our CCTV drainage study, the following issues will become clear, which you can then address and put in a planned preventative maintenance (PPM) schedule to keep your drains operating for years to come:
- Blockages
- Scale Build Up
- Signs of poor installation or displacement
- Corrosion
- Wear and Tear
- Leaks
- Displaced joints
- Cracked and collapsed drains
Note: Sometimes it is necessary to jetter wash the drains before a CCTV scan in order to clean the pipe and check to see whether the pipes are damaged when they are scaled up.
CCTV Drain Surveys and Extensions Lichfield
Because it could be hampered, drainage needs to be carefully considered when adding an addition to your Lichfield home. For instance, if your addition spans or is located close to a public sewer, the neighbourhood sewage undertaker may need to approve it. Additionally, if a building is constructed over an existing drain or sewer, pipes may be damaged, leading to leaks, clogs, smells, and maybe even health problems and environmental impact. Our technology allows us to correctly represent the current drainage system and evaluate whether any alterations are necessary before the addition is built.
