What you receive from your CCTV inspection

SouthFlow provides domestic and commercial CCTV drain inspections to identify blockages, root ingress, damaged pipes and other drainage problems.

  • CCTV video footage of the inspection.
  • Photographs or screenshots of any problems identified.
  • A written summary of findings where required.
  • Recommendations for drain cleaning, repairs or relining.

Footage and findings: We aim to provide footage and findings within 24–48 hours.

Buying a property or planning building work?

We offer CCTV inspections for customers buying properties, but do not currently provide formal coded homebuyer or build-over survey reports. If a solicitor, lender or other adviser requires a formal coded report, you will need a provider offering that report type.

Check what is already covered

Review the drainage scope of your existing property survey before commissioning additional inspection. A viewing does not reveal the internal condition of underground pipes. Camera work can investigate visible condition in accessible sections to an agreed extent.

Coordinate the property and timetable

Provide the Romsey address, seller or agent contact and purchase deadlines. Locked gardens or managed areas may need advance access arrangements. Confirm the inspection appointment and delivery of required outputs separately before relying on the work for exchange.

Share any adviser specification

We offer CCTV inspections for customers buying properties, but do not currently provide formal coded homebuyer or build-over survey reports. Share any adviser requirements before booking. If formal coded reporting is required, arrange that with a provider offering the required report type.

Your Romsey service questions

Why have a drain survey before buying a property?

Underground pipe interiors cannot be assessed during a viewing. A camera survey can help investigate their visible condition before you commit. Check what drainage assessment is already covered by your other purchase surveys.

When should I arrange the survey?

Arrange the inspection early enough for seller access and review of the findings before your purchase deadline. We aim to provide footage and findings within 24–48 hours. We offer CCTV inspections for customers buying properties, but do not currently provide formal coded homebuyer or build-over survey reports.

Who arranges access?

Coordinate access with the seller or estate agent. Tell us who will admit the engineer and whether gardens, inspection chambers or shared areas need special arrangements.

Will my solicitor or lender accept the report?

SouthFlow provides footage, images and a written summary where required, rather than a formal coded homebuyer report. If your solicitor or lender requires a formal coded report, choose a provider that offers it. Confirm their requirements before booking.

Does it include septic tanks or treatment plants?

A pipe-camera survey should not be assumed to include a specialist assessment of every drainage asset. Tell us what systems the property uses and agree any separate tank or treatment-system inspection needed.

What happens if a defect is found?

The findings can help you discuss the next steps with your advisers and the seller. Further investigation or a separate repair assessment may be needed. Repairs are not automatically included in the survey.

How much does the work cost?

We quote for the work your property needs. The price depends on the problem, access, preparation and attendance arrangements. When requesting a quote, ask what is included and whether VAT or additional investigation charges apply.
