Property Types in Stratford

Stratford's housing stock includes New build apartments (Olympic legacy), Victorian terraces, Post-war properties, Modern mixed-use developments, Commercial and retail premises. Each property type presents different drainage characteristics. Victorian and Edwardian terraces typically have original clay pipe drainage with brick inspection chambers, while inter-war and post-war properties may have pitch-fibre or early plastic pipes. Our engineers have specialist knowledge of Stratford property types and adapt the survey approach accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions — CCTV Drain Survey Stratford

Do new-build apartments in the Olympic Park area need drain surveys?
New-build properties can and do develop drainage defects. In the Stratford E20 new-build stock, common issues include non-compliant drainage connections made during construction, surface water drainage systems without adequate inspection provision, and shared drain routes serving multiple apartments that are not clearly documented in the building's drainage plans. A CCTV survey of a new-build flat before the builder's warranty expires is a valuable step — defects identified within the warranty period are the developer's liability to rectify.
What drainage issues are typical in older E15 Victorian terraces?
The Victorian terrace streets of E15 — particularly in the Forest Gate and Maryland areas — carry the same clay drainage defects found throughout east London: joint displacement from London clay ground movement, root ingress, and cracked clay barrels. These properties predate the Olympic legacy development by a century and have drainage that has typically never been surveyed. Pre-purchase surveys in this area regularly identify multiple WRC-coded defects.
Can you survey the connection between new-build drainage and the older combined sewer network in Stratford?
Yes. A frequent issue in Stratford is the connection between new UPVC drainage from Olympic legacy development and the Victorian combined sewer infrastructure that serves the surrounding older areas. Camera survey traces the drain run from the new development through any transitional pipework to the public sewer connection, identifying any capacity or structural issues at the interface.
Do you cover both E15 and E20 postcodes?
Yes. We cover E15 (Stratford, Forest Gate, West Ham, Maryland) and E20 (Olympic Park, Westfield area) with same-day and next-day availability in most cases.
