CCTV Drain Surveys In Lincoln

A CCTV drain survey in Lincoln shows what's happening inside your pipes without digging. We survey homes and businesses across LN1–LN6, recording every accessible run and giving you a written report with images, defects coded to the WRc standard and plain-English recommendations. A survey starts from £120 + VAT, and our engineers are about 40 minutes from our Southwell base.

Buying a home in Lincoln? A pre-purchase survey tells you whether the drains are sound before you exchange — particularly worthwhile on older properties with clay pipes, homes with mature trees nearby, or houses that have been extended. See our homebuyer drain surveys.

Planning an extension in Lincoln? Building close to a public sewer normally needs the water company's approval first — here that's Anglian Water — and a CCTV survey shows where the pipe runs and what condition it's in before you commit to a design.

What We Know About Lincoln

The West Parade and Brayford conservation area is full of Victorian terraced houses, where rear drains are often shared — and shared sections are normally Anglian Water's responsibility.

Lincoln's sewers are run by Anglian Water, not Severn Trent, and the city's wastewater is treated at the Canwick works.

Brayford Pool is a widening of the River Witham, linked to the Trent by the Foss Dyke, which dates back to Roman times. Storm Babet in October 2023 set record levels at Brayford Pool, Sincil Dyke and Stamp End Sluice, according to Environment Agency gauges.

More local detail — neighbourhoods, water company and road-drain contacts — is on our drainage in Lincoln page.

CCTV Drain Survey Lincoln: FAQs

CCTV drain surveys in Lincoln start from £120 + VAT, with no call-out fee. The price depends on how many runs there are and whether the pipes need jetting first so the camera can see — we confirm it before booking.

We're about 40 minutes away and work 7 days a week, so tell us your exchange date or build deadline when you book and we'll fit the survey around it. Most domestic surveys take one to two hours on site.

Check with Anglian Water before you build near a public sewer — a CCTV survey is commonly asked for, and it helps you plan around the pipe either way.

Yes. The footage and report show exactly where a defect is, which is what Anglian Water will want to see if the problem is in a shared or lateral drain rather than your private pipe.
