Drainage Reports That
Give You Real Answers

Pre-purchase inspections, LIM support, and engineering-grade CCTV reports. Know exactly what's underground before you commit.

Pre-Purchase Drain Inspection

Before you buy a property, know the condition of its drainage system. Our pre-purchase inspection uses CCTV camera technology to survey every accessible drain and provides a written report with video footage.

The report documents the pipe material, condition, any defects found, and recommended actions with indicative costs. Most inspections are completed within 48 hours of booking.

  • Full CCTV survey of all accessible drains
  • Written report with defect classification
  • Digital delivery of all footage
  • Remediation cost estimates where defects are found
  • Usually completed within 48 hours

LIM Support Reports

If a LIM report has identified a drainage issue or a council notation on drainage infrastructure, we can provide a targeted inspection and written assessment to satisfy the specific concern. These reports are formatted for submission with consent applications and due diligence processes.

Asset Condition Reports

For body corporates, property managers, and commercial owners, we provide ongoing drainage asset condition reports — a documented record of the condition of your drainage infrastructure at a point in time. Useful for maintenance planning, insurance, and capital expenditure budgeting.

Why It Matters

Drainage Problems Aren't Visible Until They're Expensive

Hidden Defects

A standard building inspection doesn't include the drainage system. A home can look immaculate while its drains are cracked, root-invaded, or partially collapsed beneath the surface.

Negotiation Leverage

If our inspection finds defects, you have documented evidence to negotiate the purchase price or request vendor remediation before settlement. Reports pay for themselves.

Peace of Mind

If the drains are in good condition, you have documented confirmation. If they're not, you know exactly what you're buying and what it will cost to fix.

Absolutely — we encourage it. Having you on-site means we can walk you through what the camera is showing in real time and answer questions as they arise.

Reports are delivered as a PDF with an executive summary, section-by-section condition ratings, annotated screenshots from the footage, and a defect register with recommended actions. Video footage is provided digitally.

Standard practice is to request access through the vendor's agent as part of due diligence. We're experienced in coordinating access efficiently within property sale timeframes.
