What's specific to cctv survey in Tyldesley
Postcodes covered: M29 · typical response 30–40 mins
Sonde tracing: Familiar with the adopted-sewer landlord arrangements on the Boothstown estates — useful when we need to physically locate an unmapped run for an extension or build-over.
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 Tyldesley 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.
