CCTV Survey in Lurgan
Lurgan's separate sewer system means misconnections are common — washing machines incorrectly plumbed into surface water drains create environmental liability. A CCTV drain survey in Lurgan reveals what's actually inside your pipes: blockages, fractures, root ingress, and illegally-connected appliances. Results in BT66, BT67, BT68, and BT69 properties guide repair decisions before small issues become expensive failures.
CCTV drain surveys in Lurgan use waterproof cameras to inspect pipes from the inside, revealing blockages, fractures, roots, and misconnections. Results guide repair decisions and satisfy council compliance. There's no fixed price for a CCTV drain survey in Lurgan — it depends on pipe length and how easy the drain run is to access.

Drainage in Lurgan — what local engineers know
Lurgan's Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon council area is served by Northern Ireland Water, which enforces strict compliance on drain misconnections. The town's mix of Victorian, Edwardian, and modern properties (each with different pipe materials and ages) makes visual inspection alone unreliable. Many older Lurgan homes were built with clay pipes now prone to root damage; modern misconnection enforcement means pre-purchase CCTV surveys have become standard in the area. Council planning records show repeated breaches in the BT67 postcode, making drain surveys part of due diligence for property transactions.
- Soft water supply reduces limescale, but slightly acidic pH can accelerate corrosion of copper fittings and lead joints in older Lurgan properties
- Separate sewer system across most of Lurgan: misconnections (e.g. washing machines plumbed into surface water drains) are a known local issue and can result in environmental enforcement action
- Ageing infrastructure in parts of Lurgan means drain blockages from grease, wipes and root ingress remain the most common call-out reasons

Who's responsible for drains in Lurgan?
In Lurgan, responsibility for a blocked or damaged drain depends on where the fault sits. As a homeowner you are responsible for the drains within your property boundary that serve only your home. Since the 2011 private sewer transfer, Northern Ireland Water is responsible for shared sewers and lateral drains beyond your boundary — even where they run under private land. Road gullies and highway drainage are maintained by Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon.
This matters because it determines who pays. If our engineer's CCTV inspection shows the fault is in a shared sewer, we'll tell you — and you can report it to Northern Ireland Water rather than paying for the repair yourself. The separate sewer layout that dominates Lurgan affects where these boundaries typically fall, and our local engineers know the BT66, BT67, BT68 networks well enough to identify ownership quickly.
