Commercial and construction drainage surveys in Paisley & Renfrewshire

Ambler Group carries out CCTV drainage surveys in Paisley, Renfrew, Inchinnan, Linwood, Johnstone, Erskine and across Renfrewshire and Inverclyde. Our surveyors are based in Glasgow, so the airport corridor and the estates along the M8 are close at hand.

Reports grade and locate every defect with supporting footage, and we can map the whole network with levels and depths in CAD for design and record purposes.

Drainage surveys on Renfrewshire commercial and airport-area sites

Renfrewshire’s commercial property is concentrated around Glasgow Airport and the M8 – Westway Park in Renfrew, the Inchinnan and Netherton advanced manufacturing district, Hillington Park on the Glasgow boundary, and estates in Linwood, Johnstone and Paisley. Sites near the airport and the River Clyde and Cart often carry significant surface water systems with attenuation, outfalls and interceptors, while Paisley’s town centre has the older, combined drainage typical of historic Scottish burghs.

We are typically instructed for pre-construction drainage mapping on new manufacturing and logistics developments, surface water condition surveys on airport-corridor estates, and lease-end and acquisition surveys on older units around Paisley and Inverclyde.

Typical Renfrewshire drainage survey instructions

  • Pre-construction drainage and PAS128 utility survey on a manufacturing development near the airport
  • Surface water and attenuation condition survey on an airport-corridor logistics estate
  • Acquisition survey of older industrial units in Linwood with no surviving records
  • Investigation of persistent blockages at a Paisley town-centre retail unit

CCTV drainage surveys for construction projects in Paisley & Renfrewshire

Main contractors, groundworkers, M&E contractors and developers use us at every stage of a build, not just when something goes wrong. In Renfrewshire we support contractors on advanced manufacturing and logistics projects around Inchinnan and the airport, regeneration in Paisley town centre, and riverside schemes along the Clyde where drainage and buried services need confirming before groundworks start.

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 Paisley & Renfrewshire | Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Do you cover Inverclyde as well as Renfrewshire?

A: Yes – Greenock, Port Glasgow and Gourock are covered alongside Paisley, Renfrew, Johnstone, Linwood, Erskine, Bishopton and Barrhead.

Q2: Can you work on sites near Glasgow Airport?

A: Yes. We work within the access, induction and security requirements of sites around the airport and plan survey work to suit operational constraints.

Q3: Can drainage and utility surveys be delivered together for a new development?

A: Yes. Combining CCTV drainage with a PAS128 utility survey and topographical survey gives designers one coordinated set of drawings for the site.

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.
