In Stafford we are particularly good at drain surveys and investigations

There’s no doubt about it, moving home is expensive, and Stafford Home Buyer’s structural surveys used to be relatively straightforward.

A building surveyor would attend the Stafford 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 Stafford Staffordshire ST16. 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 Stafford properties.

Drain locating, plotting and mapping in and around Stafford

We use the latest sonde and tracing technology throughout Staffordshire, so we can plot drains by sending a camera with a pulse wave emitting sonde and plot its course with a receiver as it traverses the pipe. We will of course supply you with a comprehensive indicative map of what we've found with depths and direction.

Illegal connections in Stafford 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 Stafford drainage connections range from innocent DIY plumbing mistakes to poor building practices. We regularly find washing machines discharging to the Staffordshire rain drains and rain drains that discharge into a sewer some times because some Stafford home owners have been unaware of the differences between surface water and foul waste drains. However the water company serving Stafford will demand to put these issues right at your own cost.

We received a call 45 mins before arrival and the drains which had been blocked for 48 hours were unblocked within a few minutes, which was excellent as man hole covers in a neighbours garden were opened and showed that the drains were being exclusively used by our house. Excellent job by Happy Drains. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Quick polite and courteous."
