Before buying any pre-1960s property, and after the second blockage in the same run within a year. The survey usually costs less than the third call-out.
Common questions
Can drains be repaired without digging up the garden?
Often, yes. Localised defects can frequently be fixed with a resin patch or liner installed from inside the pipe. Excavation is the last resort, not the default.
