Drainage Repairs & CCTV Surveys in Dorset
Leaking or damaged drains are one of the most common causes of subsidence in Dorset. Water escaping from broken pipes softens the ground beneath your foundations, leading to movement and cracking. Our drainage repair and CCTV survey service identifies and resolves these hidden problems.
We use state-of-the-art CCTV camera systems to inspect your drainage network without excavation, pinpointing cracks, collapses, root intrusion, and misaligned joints. This diagnostic approach means we can target repairs precisely rather than guessing at the problem.
Our drainage repair solutions include lining, patching, excavation and replacement, and root cutting — all carried out by experienced engineers who understand the link between drainage failure and subsidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can a leaking drain cause subsidence?
Yes, leaking drains are one of the leading causes of subsidence in Dorset. Water escaping from damaged pipes washes away soil supporting your foundations, causing the ground to sink and your property to move.
What does a CCTV drain survey involve?
A small camera is fed through your drainage system to inspect the inside of pipes. The footage shows cracks, blockages, root intrusion, and collapsed sections. We provide a full report with findings and recommendations.
How much does a CCTV drain survey cost?
CCTV drain surveys in Dorset typically start from a few hundred pounds depending on the size and complexity of your drainage network. The cost is a fraction of what you'd spend on unnecessary excavation.
How long does a drainage repair take?
Simple repairs like pipe lining can be completed in a day. More extensive work involving excavation and replacement may take several days. We provide timelines as part of our quotation.
Will my insurance cover drainage repairs?
If drainage failure has caused subsidence, your insurer may cover the repair costs. We provide detailed reports and evidence to support your claim.
Do you repair drains under buildings?
Yes, we regularly repair and replace drains running beneath properties. Techniques like no-dig lining allow us to fix pipes under buildings without excavation in many cases.
