Buying a property or planning building work?
We offer CCTV inspections for customers buying properties, but do not currently provide formal coded homebuyer or build-over survey reports. If a solicitor, lender or other adviser requires a formal coded report, you will need a provider offering that report type.
Check the underground drainage before purchase
A homebuyer CCTV inspection focuses on accessible pipe interiors that cannot be assessed during an ordinary viewing. For a New Milton purchase, first check the drainage scope already arranged, then explain the remaining questions and any known issues to SouthFlow.
Coordinate the survey with the seller
Share the property address, access contact and purchase timetable. Entry to gardens, inspection chambers or managed areas may need advance agreement. Confirm both the visit and the delivery of required outputs, allowing time for your advisers to consider the findings.
Agree boundaries of the inspection
We offer CCTV inspections for customers buying properties, but do not currently provide formal coded homebuyer or build-over survey reports. Share any adviser requirements before booking. If formal coded reporting is required, arrange that with a provider offering the required report type.
Your New Milton service questions
Why have a drain survey before buying a property?
Underground pipe interiors cannot be assessed during a viewing. A camera survey can help investigate their visible condition before you commit. Check what drainage assessment is already covered by your other purchase surveys.
When should I arrange the survey?
Arrange the inspection early enough for seller access and review of the findings before your purchase deadline. We aim to provide footage and findings within 24–48 hours. We offer CCTV inspections for customers buying properties, but do not currently provide formal coded homebuyer or build-over survey reports.
Who arranges access?
Coordinate access with the seller or estate agent. Tell us who will admit the engineer and whether gardens, inspection chambers or shared areas need special arrangements.
Will my solicitor or lender accept the report?
SouthFlow provides footage, images and a written summary where required, rather than a formal coded homebuyer report. If your solicitor or lender requires a formal coded report, choose a provider that offers it. Confirm their requirements before booking.
Does it include septic tanks or treatment plants?
A pipe-camera survey should not be assumed to include a specialist assessment of every drainage asset. Tell us what systems the property uses and agree any separate tank or treatment-system inspection needed.
What happens if a defect is found?
The findings can help you discuss the next steps with your advisers and the seller. Further investigation or a separate repair assessment may be needed. Repairs are not automatically included in the survey.
How much does the work cost?
We quote for the work your property needs. The price depends on the problem, access, preparation and attendance arrangements. When requesting a quote, ask what is included and whether VAT or additional investigation charges apply.
