I’ve had Antony out to look at our drains on a couple of occasion, both times prompt, knowledgeable and charging clear and fair prices. Very happy with the service! Ian White2024-11-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great Job by them, I had a slow draining kitchen sink, that refused to be fixed by me. I called Flow Sure Drains, and it looked like it was going to defeat him as well, but Tony refused to give up and with some detective work figured out the issue, despite me giving him incorrect information, given to me by a company I paid 5 years ago to survey my drain system, on which inspection cover was Surface water and which was foul water. Turns out both were foul water! So thank you for giving up Russell Jones2024-08-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic service.

Do You Need a CCTV Drain Survey?
If your drains keep blocking or you are planning to buy a property, a CCTV drain survey can help you see what’s going on inside your pipes. It’s a simple and safe way to check for problems without digging.
Here are some signs that you might need a CCTV drain survey:
- Drains keep blocking: If the same drain keeps blocking, there may be a bigger issue.
- Bad smells or gurgling noises: These can mean something is stuck in the pipes.
- Water backing up: This could be a sign of a broken or collapsed pipe.
- Buying or selling a property: A drain survey can help you check the condition of the drains before making a big decision.
- Rodents or insects: Rats and bugs can get in through cracks in damaged pipes.
- Damp or sinking ground: This may happen if underground pipes are broken.
If you notice any of these signs, Flow Sure Drains can help with a full CCTV drain survey in Bristol or Chepstow.

FAQ’s
1. What is a CCTV drain survey?
A CCTV drain survey is a way to check the inside of your drainage system using a small waterproof camera. The camera is fed into the pipes to record video footage of the inside, showing any blockages, cracks, or damage. It helps find problems without needing to dig or take anything apart.
At Flow Sure Drains, we use high-quality equipment to carry out accurate CCTV drain surveys, giving you a full report with images and expert advice.
2. How does a CCTV drain survey work?
During a CCTV drain survey, a trained drainage engineer inserts a flexible camera into the pipe system. The camera sends live video to a screen, showing what’s happening inside your drains in real time. We look for signs of damage, blockages, or wear.
Once the survey is done, you’ll receive a detailed report, along with footage and recommendations. It’s a quick, clean way to assess your drainage system without digging.
3. How much does a CCTV drain survey cost?
The cost of a CCTV drain survey can vary depending on factors such as the size of the property, the complexity of the drainage system, and the purpose of the survey. For example, a homebuyer survey may differ from a survey for ongoing drain issues or building work.
At Flow Sure Drains, we offer competitive and transparent pricing for all CCTV drain survey services. We’ll assess your needs and provide a clear quote before any work begins, with no hidden charges.

4. How long does a CCTV drain survey take?
A standard CCTV drain survey usually takes between 30 minutes and 1 hour for a small property. Larger systems or more complex issues may take longer.
Once the survey is complete, we provide your report shortly afterwards. Our aim is to get the answers you need quickly and clearly, with minimal disruption to your day.
