Rodent CCTV camera inspection Package From Drainsmart

For property owners across London, discovering you have a rodent infestation can be a deeply unsettling and persistent problem. Rats and mice often gain access to your home via faults in the underground drainage system, using broken pipes and redundant connections as an underground motorway straight into your building. Dealing with the immediate presence of a rodent is only half the battle; to achieve a permanent solution, you must identify and seal the precise point of entry.

This is where the specialist value of the Rodent CCTV camera inspection Package from Drainsmart comes into play.

We developed this package specifically for the London property market, where old, complex, and often shared drainage systems present a high risk of ingress. When you choose our Rodent Inspection, you are not simply opting for a camera survey; you are commissioning a comprehensive, targeted intervention designed for definitive results.

Beyond the Basic Inspection

The foundation of the service is a full CCTV camera inspection of the accessible pipework. Our high-resolution cameras allow us to accurately inspect the condition of the pipes, identifying tell-tale signs of rodent activity like nest building or gnawing, as well as structural defects such as fractures, open joints, and collapsed sections that serve as entry points.

However, the true benefit of this package lies in the robust, problem-solving elements that follow the camera work:

• High-Pressure Water Jetting: We include up to an hour of high-pressure water jetting. This is not just for cleaning; it is a critical diagnostic step used to confirm if any connections directing into a manhole are redundant or abandoned. Clearing blockages and debris provides a clear view and helps us determine the optimal repair strategy.

• Sealing Redundant Connections: Once we have confirmed a connection is redundant—and often a prime candidate for rodent entry—we proceed to seal it off. This immediately eliminates a potential gateway into the system and, subsequently, your property. We can also allow to replace a missing cap on an interceptor trap if it is accessible, further securing the system.

The Ultimate Deterrent: The Rat Blocker

The final and most crucial component of this package is the supply and fitting of a 100mm or 150mm marine grade steel rat blocker. This innovative device is installed within the pipe, allowing effluent and waste to flow freely out of the property, but physically preventing rats from travelling back up the pipe and entering the premises. Made from durable, marine-grade steel, it is designed to be a long-term, robust solution against persistent intruders.

For busy London homeowners and landlords, we know that time is often of the essence.

That is why the Rodent Package includes a guaranteed report within two working days.

You receive a clear, computerised drawing of the inspected system, stills and footage, and expert recommendations, allowing you to move swiftly towards a rodent-free environment.

By choosing our dedicated Rodent CCTV camera inspection Package, you are not just treating a symptom; you are permanently addressing the root cause of the infestation from the underground source, securing your property against future incursions with professional expertise and proven technology.
