Why Choose Us?

What Happens During a Formby Manhole Inspection?

It’s actually quite straightforward and non-disruptive. When we carry out a manhole inspection in Formby, we carefully lift the manhole cover, which provides access to your underground drainage network. From there, we send a specialist CCTV camera right into the pipes. This camera feeds live images back to our experienced engineers, letting them spot any problems like cracks, blockages, tree roots getting in, or even collapsed sections. We record everything, so you get a detailed visual record of your drains.

Navigating United Utilities Build-Over Agreements in Formby

Planning an extension or a conservatory on your Formby property? If your building plans mean you’ll be constructing over or within three metres of a public sewer, you’ll likely need a "Build-Over Agreement" with United Utilities. Part of this process often requires a CCTV drainage survey and manhole inspection to assess the sewer’s condition both before and after your build. We regularly help Formby residents meet these requirements, providing the detailed reports United Utilities need so your project can move forward smoothly.
