What's specific to cctv survey in Stockton Heath

Postcodes covered: WA4 · typical response 45–55 mins

Insurance work: reports include the WRc defect log, plan diagram and full video file as standard, not as a paid add-on.

Pre-purchase context: in Stockton Heath the issues that most often show on CCTV are root ingress at salt-glazed joints, fat build-up and the occasional pitch fibre deformation — we flag and code each one to MSCC5 so the report has weight with conveyancers.

Sonde tracing: Long-standing familiarity with the WA4 root-and-lining cycle on heritage residential stock — useful when we need to physically locate an unmapped run for an extension or build-over.
