Surrey & West Sussex
Start with the question the inspection needs to answer
A drainage inspection can help investigate a recurring blockage, persistent odour or suspected damage. Tell SouthFlow what has changed and which outlets are affected. Accessible chamber observations and CCTV pipe inspection answer different questions, so the scope should identify which parts of the system need examining.
SouthFlow provides domestic and commercial CCTV inspections to identify blockages, root ingress, damaged pipes and other drainage problems. Customers receive video footage, photographs or screenshots of identified problems and recommendations for cleaning, repairs or relining. A written summary is available where required.
Findings, access and reporting limits
We aim to provide CCTV footage and findings within 24–48 hours. Obstructions or inaccessible sections can limit what can be inspected and should be discussed. We offer inspections for property buyers but do not currently provide formal coded homebuyer or build-over survey reports. If a third party requires one, arrange the required reporting service separately.

Drain Inspection for homes & businesses
An inspection helps establish where a drainage issue may be developing. SouthFlow can assess access points and affected drainage, with CCTV survey options where an internal view of the pipework is needed.

Common questions
When might I need a CCTV survey?
If the cause is hidden inside the drain, a camera survey can help investigate its condition. Explore our CCTV drain survey page or describe the problem when you enquire.

How do I arrange an enquiry?
Call 07922 321154 or email info@southflowdrainage.co.uk with the address and work required. The staging form remains unconnected, so use these direct contact details.
Decide what the inspection needs to establish
An inspection enquiry is most useful when it starts with a clear question: where is the restriction, what condition is the accessible drainage in, or what further work should be considered?
If you require a written report, recorded footage or findings for a third party, specify the requirement before booking. Confirm the agreed scope and outputs rather than assuming every inspection includes the same documentation.
Discuss the work before booking
Describe the issue
Provide the postcode, property type and relevant symptoms or findings.
Explain site access
Share the location of drainage points and any restrictions on working space or attendance.
Agree the scope
Confirm the proposed work, included costs and any required outputs or follow-up work.
Planning your drainage work
Should I book an inspection or a full survey?
Explain why you need the work. Investigation of a current fault and a property-purchase survey may require different scopes and outputs.
What affects the cost?
The drainage condition, access, extent of work, preparation and attendance requirements affect the quote. Describe the job and ask which work and charges are included.
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
Yes. SouthFlow covers homes and businesses throughout Hampshire. See Hampshire coverage for locations served. The wider service area also includes Surrey and West Sussex.
Can an inspection identify every hidden defect?
No inspection can show inaccessible or obscured sections. Camera access, water levels and obstructions can limit visibility. The findings should distinguish what was observed from areas that could not be inspected.
What should I send before an inspection?
Send the full address, symptoms, previous findings and access arrangements. Explain whether the purpose is fault diagnosis, repair planning or a purchase enquiry, and share any required report specification before booking.
