Your Tadley 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.

Make the purchase enquiry specific to the property

For a Tadley homebuyer survey, establish whether the property drainage arrangement is known and share any seller information or previous findings. Do not assume the camera inspection includes every asset on the site. Tanks, treatment systems and other off-mains components may need a separate specialist assessment, agreed explicitly before booking.

SouthFlow offers CCTV inspections for property buyers, but does not currently provide formal coded homebuyer or build-over survey reports.

Check the inspection meets your purchase requirements

Before arranging a CCTV inspection for a Tadley property purchase, ask your solicitor, lender or surveyor what evidence they need. SouthFlow can inspect accessible drains and provide footage, images, recommendations and a written summary where required. We do not currently provide formal coded homebuyer or build-over survey reports, so choose an appropriate reporting provider if those are a requirement.

Ask the seller or agent what is known about the drainage arrangement and arrange permission for access. If the property uses a septic tank, treatment plant or another off-mains system, discuss a separate specialist assessment rather than assuming a pipe camera inspection includes it. Allow time to review findings and any recommended further investigation before making purchase decisions.
