What this job actually involves

Pre-purchase drainage survey — how it works here

A homebuyer survey stops where the ground starts. The surveyor notes that drainage exists and moves on, because the inside of a pipe needs different equipment and a different discipline. That leaves the most expensive unknown on the property unexamined, days before you are committed to it.

Every accessible run on the plot, including any shared length serving neighbours
Each defect graded to MSCC5 and located by distance and depth
Pipe material and age stated, since both decide what a repair would cost
Where the private drain ends and United Utilities' responsibility begins
Delivered the same day, so there is time to act on it before exchange
No repair quote attached, and no interest in what the report says

Before you ring

Questions about pre-purchase drainage survey

When should I book it?

Early enough that you still have room to negotiate. A survey the week before exchange is still worth having, but a survey three weeks before exchange is worth considerably more.

Is it worth it on an ex-council property?

Particularly so. Much of WA2 was built as council stock with shared drainage, and buyers are frequently unaware the arrangement exists at all until the first blockage.
