Drain CCTV survey: what the job involves

Putting a waterproof camera through the underground drains to see their condition, then reporting cracks, root intrusion, displaced joints, sagging runs and blockages with recorded footage. Done after repeat blockages, before buying a house, or before deciding how to repair.

How long it takes: One to three hours on site for a typical house; the report usually follows within a few working days, faster if needed for a house sale.

What affects the price

  • Length of drain and the number of manholes and runs
  • Whether jetting is needed before the camera can see
  • Buried, sealed or missing manholes
  • The level of report: footage only, or a written report with a plan
  • Urgency, for example a closing date on a house purchase
  • VAT: building work on a home is charged at the reduced rate of 13.5% by a VAT-registered business — unless the materials come to more than two-thirds of the price, when Revenue’s two-thirds rule applies the goods rate to the whole job. Ask whether a quote includes VAT.

County Cork: what the figures say

  • 43.0% of households in County Cork live in homes built before 1981 — above the national figure of 40.7%, and the 3rd highest share of the 26 counties.

    Older drains are more often clay pipes, which crack and let roots in over time; a CCTV survey shows their condition before anything is dug up.
