Frequently Asked Questions — CCTV Drain Survey Shepherd's Bush

How does Shepherd's Bush's combined sewer network affect residential properties?
Shepherd's Bush sits on a combined sewer network — storm water and foul water share the same Victorian pipes. In heavy rainfall, these systems can surcharge, creating backflow risk for basement and ground-floor properties. A CCTV survey in W12 will identify any combined sewer connection, assess condition, and flag backflow risk factors. Thames Water holds responsibility for the public sewer; the private drain from your property to the sewer is your maintenance obligation.
Do you survey drainage in the commercial streets around Shepherd's Bush Green?
Yes. We carry out commercial and mixed-use drainage surveys across W12, including properties on and near Shepherd's Bush Green and the Westfield area. Commercial premises — food outlets, restaurants, and retail — contribute to grease and debris accumulation in shared sewer connections. Pre-lease commercial surveys are strongly recommended before taking on drainage liability in this area.
What drainage issues are common in Shepherd's Bush's converted Victorian properties?
Victorian properties converted to flats in W12 frequently have drainage that was originally designed for a single household but now serves multiple independent units. Shared stacks, informal connection points, and drain runs that have been partially rerouted during conversion works are common. Camera inspection traces these arrangements definitively and identifies the condition of each section.
Can you survey a White City new-build apartment's drainage?
Yes. The newer apartment developments in and around White City have modern drainage infrastructure, but installation defects, misconnected drainage, and early-life joint failures do occur. We survey all property types in W12 and produce WRC-standard reports that are accepted by solicitors and mortgage lenders regardless of property age.
