Our Mega-Cam provides the highest quality CCTV surveys and can detect settled deposits, joints displacement, deformed sewers, fractures, broken pipes, cracks and pin-point their precise location in drains and sewers. When lowered into place from a standard man-hole, the Mega-Cam can operate up to 500m from the vehicle. We can access surface water drains as well as underground culverts using cure in place pipe (CIPP). This then provides us with a map of existing sewers and connections in any given area.
The crawler unit remote-controlled CCTV robot camera system. It has 4-wheel drive, colour CCTV inspection and is suitable for pipes between 450mm and 2 metres+ in diameter. This unit comes complete with built-in DVD, so all surveys are recorded, and a copy given to clients as a formal report regarding the condition and structure of their drainage networks.
HCL’s professional CCTV drainage surveys can help you identify and address potential problems early on. Our team of experienced engineers and confined space experts use state-of-the-art technology to conduct sewer and drainage inspections in all areas, ensuring that your system is functioning optimally. Our assessments are accurate and efficient, providing you with the insights you need to keep your system running smoothly. You can trust HCL to be your trustworthy provider of CCTV drainage survey services.
Hydro Cleansing's research team designed a remote camera specifically developed for water bound environments. Mega-Float provides high definition recordings for surveying faults, blockages and drainage infrastructure by inspecting sewers, culverts and drains whilst flooded, providing comprehensive reports within 48 hours. Mega Float has the ability inspect the dangers of entering water bound environments.
Our high performance Mega-Cam systems each have HD colour cameras, enabling engineers to easily identify objects causing blockages and are able to survey pipe sizes between 50mm and 300mm in diameter and operate to distances of 500m in a single setup.
HCL engineers are fully trained and qualified specialists in operating our remotely controlled cameras for pre-adoption drain surveys. Our engineers assess the state and integrity of the drain or sewer without causing any disruptions to the client, or the environment. Our engineers provide a report on any findings along with any recommendations that would resolve any issues found.
Pre-adoption surveys are also required by mortgage lenders prior to agreeing to a mortgage. This is to assure mortgage lenders that the property, for which they are giving a loan, have no hidden faults that could seriously devalue the property, and also assures the buyer of the property, that the drains are in good working order. This survey is also known as a Homebuyers’ Survey.
HCL uses the latest CCTV survey technology when carrying out pre-adoption surveys. Our cameras record HD quality videos of any issues detected within drains, using shadow-less LED lighting with 10x optical zoom and dual lasers to measure defects. Our cameras are suitable for drains measuring less than 150mm (6”) all the way up to 1000mm (40”) in diameter.
Our skilled specialist engineers are trained and qualified to operate the equipment required to undertake site surveys. Site surveys may include existing buildings, structural surveys and investigations, flood risk, air quality and historic use amongst other things. A site survey may also include a feasibility report, and estimation of cost, and time to carry out the works.
Accurate information is required from the start of a building or engineering project, and it is essential that ground conditions, and previous use of land are established at the outset. This helps to minimise risks, by providing data on which to base the concept and reduce risks in the planning stage of the project.
HCL’s site surveys shows the precise location of obstacles and boundaries to the site. This may include other buildings within the boundaries, trees that are protected, any rivers or streams, and the gradient of the land. Highlighting these at the start of the project, can save a lot of issues and hazards to the project.
Time is spent on site to complete the survey, using instruments to collect location data. This data is then analysed before a scaled drawing is completed to reflect the results of the analysis. Topographical surveys provide accurate information on the levels of the site. These surveys are usually requested, and used by architects, engineers, civil contractors, and landscape gardeners, to help them to progress with their designs or drawings.
It always pays to check your drains, septic tanks and sewers. Our trained engineers assess their condition and provide rehabilitation using cure in place pipe (CIPP) where necessary, as well as target hard to reach surface water drains with a pipe allowance of between 100mm to 750mm.
Getting a homebuyer survey is a great way to avoid unexpected repair costs further down the line. Getting a survey for a house or flat will also give you an idea of how much you might need to invest in a property after you buy it.
Conditional and connectivity surveys assess the internal condition of our drains and sewage systems unearthing any pipe collapses, rot damage or blockages. Inspecting the structural condition means that any problems can be dealt with immediately and any future problems can be avoided.
Our engineers operate a variety of different types of visual technology to accurately assess their surface water drains and highlight any repair required.
CCTV drain surveys are carried out by inserting a camera into the drain/sewer system to detect and identify any issues that could affect the performance of your drains, such as blockages, root damage or pipe collapse. Typically deployed to find and record faults within drainage systems, HCL’s CCTV drain survey can help prevent any failures in the drainage system. CCTV drain survey is used to a great extent, within the construction industry, at the point of site handover. The engineer will carry out a comprehensive evaluation, producing a report on the site’s drainage systems, verifying the integrity, cleanliness and operational effectiveness of the system. The report is vital to the assured and complete handover of a building, and could prevent on-going disputes over liabilities, should systems fail.
