Contact usDrainage surveys on Fife commercial and industrial sites
South and west Fife combine port and marine industry at Rosyth and the Forth, fast-growing business and residential development around Dunfermline – including the Carnegie Campus and Pitreavie business parks – and established industrial towns such as Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes and Methil. Older industrial sites frequently have drainage that predates any surviving drawing, while new growth around Dunfermline brings a steady flow of construction drainage that needs proving before handover and vesting.
Typical Fife instructions include drainage records for older industrial and port-side sites, pre-construction mapping on new commercial schemes, planned condition surveys for multi-site FM portfolios, and CCTV of new drainage before practical completion.
Typical Fife drainage survey instructions
- Drainage record survey of an older port-side industrial site with no existing plans
- Pre-construction CCTV and mapping on a new commercial scheme near Dunfermline
- Planned condition survey across a portfolio of Fife retail and office sites
- CCTV proving of new foul and surface water drainage before handover

Main contractors, groundworkers, M&E contractors and developers use us at every stage of a build, not just when something goes wrong. In Fife we support contractors on Dunfermline’s growth areas, port and marine projects at Rosyth, and commercial and industrial refurbishment in Kirkcaldy and Glenrothes, combining drainage surveys with utility and topographical surveys for design.
Pre-construction
Existing drainage traced, surveyed and drawn with levels and depths – combined with a PAS128 utility survey so the design team and groundworkers start from one accurate set of drawings.
During construction
Checks on new runs before backfilling or surfacing, connection surveys into existing sewers, and investigation when existing drainage is damaged or found unrecorded.
Pre-handover & vesting
Full CCTV of new foul and surface water drainage before practical completion, retention release or a request to vest sewers with Scottish Water, with defects listed for remedial works.
As-built records
Drainage as-built drawings in CAD and survey footage for the O&M manual and health and safety file.

CCTV Drainage Surveys in Fife | Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: How far into Fife do you travel?
A: We cover Dunfermline, Rosyth, Inverkeithing, Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes, Cowdenbeath and Levenmouth as standard, and travel further across Fife for larger commercial projects.
Q2: Can you produce drawings for a site with no drainage records?
A: Yes. We trace and map the network with levels and depths and supply CAD drawings that become the site’s drainage record.
Q3: Do you survey new drainage before handover?
A: Yes. We CCTV new foul and surface water runs so defects are picked up and put right before practical completion, retention release or vesting.
Q4: Can you survey drainage and utilities on the same visit?
A: Yes. Because we are a utility surveying company first, we can combine a CCTV drainage survey with a PAS128 utility survey, GPR and a topographical survey, so you get one coordinated set of drawings instead of three contractors on site.
Q5: How much does a commercial CCTV drainage survey cost?
A: Commercial surveys are priced on the extent of the network, access, traffic management and whether jetting is needed. Send us a site plan with the areas marked and we will come back with a fixed quote, usually the same or next working day.
