In Preston we are particularly good at drain surveys and investigations
There’s no doubt about it, moving home is expensive, and Preston Home Buyer’s structural surveys used to be relatively straightforward.
A building surveyor would attend the Preston house you were going to buy and undertake inspection, ranging from the entry level ‘valuation’ up to the ‘full structural’, none of which were cheap. The majority of buyers would opt for the entry level and least expensive option their mortgage lender would accept in Preston Lancashire PR0. Against a backdrop of litigation and a compensation culture, surveyors have had no choice but to add disclaimers about anything he or she can’t actually see or inspect, especially underground services like drains.
Hence the recent additional need of a specialist drainage survey for Preston properties.

Drain locating, plotting and mapping in and around Preston

We will of course supply you with a comprehensive indicative map of what we’ve found with depths and direction.
Illegal connections in Preston and other dodgy works
During the course of any survey we will take the opportunity to make sure that all your drains are connected appropriately.
The causes of illegal Preston drainage connections range from innocent DIY plumbing mistakes to poor building practices. We regularly find washing machines discharging to the Lancashire rain drains and rain drains that discharge into a sewer some times because some Preston home owners have been unaware of the differences between surface water and foul waste drains. However the water company serving Preston will demand to put these issues right at your own cost.

Unblocking a very smelly bathroom sink
“I rang Happy Drains at 8:45am on a Monday morning to say I had a blocked and very smelly drain in the bathroom sink. They sent someone out who arrived at 11am – he unblocked the sink, checked the shower and toilet in the same bathroom, took photographs and cleaned everything perfectly. Such great service in such a timely manner. We also use Happy Drains at my work place and have always found their team great!”

So quick!
