Commercial and construction drainage surveys in Perth
Ambler Group carries out CCTV drainage surveys in Perth for commercial landlords, facilities managers, food and drink producers, developers and contractors. Our Scottish surveyors work from Falkirk, so Perth city, Inveralmond, Broxden, Scone and the towns of Perth & Kinross are within easy daily reach.
You get graded, located defects backed by footage and, where you need it, full drain mapping with levels and depths produced in CAD.

Contact usDrainage surveys on Perth commercial sites
Perth combines a historic city centre on the banks of the Tay with busy business and industrial areas on its western and northern edges – Inveralmond Industrial Estate, the Ruthvenfield and Broxden areas by the A9 and M90, and the commercial and airfield sites around Scone. The wider Perth & Kinross area adds food and drink production, distilleries, hotels, leisure and agricultural businesses, many on sites that have grown piece by piece over decades.
Low-lying parts of Perth sit close to the Tay, so surface water, outfalls and flap valves matter, and drainage in older city-centre buildings is often shared and poorly recorded. New housing-led and commercial growth around the city brings a steady flow of construction drainage that must be surveyed before handover and vesting. Typical instructions include condition surveys for planned maintenance, drainage mapping before extensions, and investigating recurring flooding or blockages.
Typical Perth drainage survey instructions
- Condition survey of process and surface water drainage at a food production site
- Pre-construction drainage mapping on an Inveralmond unit before an extension
- Surface water and outfall survey for a riverside commercial property
- CCTV proving of new drainage on a commercial or residential scheme before vesting

Main contractors, groundworkers, M&E contractors and developers use us at every stage of a build, not just when something goes wrong. Around Perth we support contractors on new housing-led and mixed-use development on the edge of the city, extensions and new units at Inveralmond and Broxden, and refurbishment of historic city-centre buildings where shared drainage needs to be traced before 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 Perth | Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Do you cover Perth from your Scottish base?
A: Yes. Our Scottish surveyors work from Falkirk, and Perth is a straightforward run up the M9 and A9, so Perth and the surrounding towns are part of our regular coverage.
Q2: Do you travel to the rest of Perth & Kinross?
A: Yes – Kinross, Milnathort, Auchterarder, Crieff, Blairgowrie, Coupar Angus and Bridge of Earn are all covered, and we travel further into Highland Perthshire for larger commercial projects.
Q3: Can you survey drainage at food and drink production sites?
A: Yes. We work to site hygiene, induction and permit rules, and can survey process, foul and surface water drainage around production schedules and shutdowns.
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.
