This covers the actual condition of the drains and Septic Tank or sewage treatment plant and includes any damage or potential areas that need work.
This part of the home buyers drain survey looks at any pipes that are not connected properly. This could result in leakage and incorrect flow levels. We identify and report any such issues and advise on any remedial work. We will also identify any rainwater or surface water connections leading to the Septic Tank/Sewage treatment plant and recommend the best course of action for removing these along with an estimated cost.
It is not always clear who is responsible for certain parts of the drainage and sewage systems around properties. This is one of those things that many people fail to think about until there is a problem. This can lead to confusion, issues with neighbours and even legal problems in the event of a something going wrong. Much like a chartered surveyor will outline the boundaries of the property we will provide information about the drain ownership.
Your drainage survey will also provide you with a map of the drainage system. This can be very useful and save money in the event of any damage or repair work needed at a later date. It can also help if you then go on to sell the property as this map is unlikely to change.
You will receive a detailed report including images and video from the CCTV survey equipment. This information can then be used during the property purchase or any other legal situation. ADP are on hand to explain any issues and go over the report with you.
