FULL CCTV DOMESTIC DRAINAGE SURVEY FOR FIRMBALLS PLAYERS, TEAMS AND
FOLLOWERS
At only £45 plus VAT* this full CCTV Drain Survey for Domestic properties will help house buyers
understand the condition of their new home’s drainage system and reduce the risk of inheriting a costly
problem that may or may not be covered by an insurance policy.
The good news is that by instructing a Blockbusters Home Buyers Drain Survey we can quickly make sure
a purchaser does not inherit a problem but also through using an insurance mandate we can manage any
potential drainage insurance claim through the seller’s policy and switch the benefit to the new buyer
costing only the policy excess should one apply.
The benefit of this is that there will be no nasty surprises for buyers and by undertaking this early in the
process it will not hold up any prospective sale.
Our Homebuyers Survey includes:
•
Full CCTV Drain Survey to latest industry standards
•
Colour screenshots of footage showing condition
•
Schematic drawing of the property’s drainage system
•
Full written report detailing condition of the system
•
Any recommendations for maintenance or repair
•
Any prices for potential further works
We recommend that all home buyers consider having one of these very reasonably priced surveys –
please see the special offer page on our website to take advantage of this great offer – or follow the link
