What this job actually involves

Subsidence drain investigation — how it works here

A leaking drain washes fine material out of the ground around it, and ground that has lost its fines settles. Over years, that shows up in a building as cracking. Insurers and structural engineers know this, which is why a drainage survey is very often the first thing requested when a subsidence claim is opened.

Every run beneath and around the affected elevation surveyed
Leaking joints, fractures and open connections identified and located
Findings written so they can be handed straight to an engineer or a loss adjuster
Depths and distances recorded, which is what makes the report usable as evidence
The narrated footage supplied in full, unedited
An independent survey, with no repair work being quoted off the back of it

Questions about subsidence drain investigation

My insurer has asked for a CCTV drainage survey. Is this it?

Yes. An MSCC5-coded survey with graded defects, distances, depths and video is the standard format, and it is what we produce.

Does a defect in the drain prove the drain caused the cracking?

No, and we will not claim it does. It establishes whether a mechanism is present. Attributing the movement is an engineer's job, and they need this report to do it.
