WRc-Coded Drain Camera Surveys in Witney
HD push-rod and crawler cameras with sonde tracing — full WRc-coded report supplied for insurance, pre-purchase or build-over.
Build-over consent in Witney starts with a CCTV survey. Period stone terraces in the town centre, large 1990s–2010s estates around Madley Park and Cogges, and rural detacheds on the fringes. If your extension footprint crosses a drain run, United Utilities want a sonde-traced plan with depths before they'll consent — exactly the package we supply as standard, not as an upsell.

What's specific to cctv survey in Witney
Postcodes covered: OX28, OX29 · typical response 240–250 mins
Pre-purchase context: in Witney 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: Booked alongside other Oxfordshire mobilisations to keep travel costs honest — 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.
