Drain Inspection

At K Drain Cleaning, we specialise in professional drain inspection services for residential, commercial, and industrial clients throughout Kildare, Carlow, Laois, and Kilkenny. While we do not offer full drain survey services, our comprehensive drain inspections are an essential solution for identifying issues before they become expensive emergencies. With years of experience, cutting-edge technology, and a reputation for reliability, we help keep your drains flowing and your properties protected.

What Is a Drain Inspection?
A drain inspection involves using specialised equipment to visually assess the condition of a drainage system. It allows us to detect common problems such as:
-
Blockages
-
Tree root intrusion
-
Pipe damage or collapse
-
Grease build-up
-
Misaligned pipe sections
Unlike a drain survey, which often includes full mapping and written reports for building or legal purposes, our drain inspections are designed to quickly identify and diagnose practical problems within your system to allow for swift resolution.

Preventative Drain Inspections
Regular preventative inspections can save you from the inconvenience and expense of a major drainage issue. We recommend annual inspections for older properties or those with trees nearby to monitor pipe condition and flow performance.
