The OLEX Difference

We Don't Just Clear the Blockage. We Find Out Why It Happened.

Clearing a blocked drain may restore flow, but recurring blockages often indicate an underlying problem. OLEX can investigate your drainage using specialist CCTV equipment to identify issues — and once identified, we can recommend the most appropriate repair.

CCTV Drain Surveys

See What's Really Happening Underground

Our professional CCTV drain surveys provide a clear view of the condition of your underground drainage. Using specialist HD drainage cameras and locating equipment, OLEX can identify defects and accurately locate problem areas from above ground.

Pre-Purchase Surveys

Buying a Property? Check the Drains Before You Buy.

Underground drainage problems aren't always visible during a normal property viewing. A pre-purchase CCTV drainage survey can identify defects before they become an unexpected expense after you've moved in.

Our surveys can help identify

  • Damaged pipework
  • Open joints
  • Root ingress
  • Collapsed drains
  • Poor connections
  • Previous repairs
  • Structural defects
