A CCTV survey puts a camera through your drains and takes the guesswork out of what is happening underground. Instead of paying to clear the same blockage twice a year, you see the displaced joint, the root mass or the collapsed section causing it, exactly where it is and how bad it is.

The Shrewsbury property market keeps camera surveys busy: period farmhouses and barn conversions around Condover, Baschurch and Atcham sell steadily, and drainage compliance now features in almost every rural sale here. A pre-purchase survey pairs naturally with a septic system inspection on off-mains properties, and inside the town the same camera work dates and maps the aged pipe runs under Shrewsbury’s older streets before a renovation commits to them.

The villages and scattered farms around Shrewsbury are classic off-mains territory. Older properties typically run on septic tanks of varying vintages, newer rural builds and barn conversions on package treatment plants, and it is common for a property changing hands here to be the first time anyone has looked hard at the system in years.
