    Frequently Asked Questions about Drain Detection

    Case Studies

    Finding the Forgotten Septic Tank

    Yaiza

    Problem

    New owners of a rural property were told it was connected to mains sewerage, but started experiencing problems. They needed to find out where their drainage actually went.

    Solution

    Our drain trace followed the main sewer line from the property, which we expected to reach the road. Instead, it turned and headed into the garden, ending at a buried septic tank that had been covered over and forgotten.

    Result

    The septic tank was located, uncovered, and emptied - it was nearly full which explained the drainage problems. The owners now have it on a regular emptying schedule and understand their system.

    Extension Planning Survey

    Puerto del Carmen

    Problem

    An architect needed accurate drain positions before designing an extension. The original property plans showed drains in a different location to where the manholes actually were.

    Solution

    We traced all drains on the property and provided a CAD drawing showing exact routes, depths, and inspection chamber locations. The survey revealed an additional drain run not shown on any plans.

    Result

    The architect was able to design the extension avoiding all drainage, saving the cost of diverting drains and preventing potential problems during construction.
