At NRC WWS, we carry out commercial drain investigations using advanced technology to locate and diagnose issues in complex drainage networks – fast.
From leak detection and dye testing to structural assessments and mapping, we provide full-service fault-finding with minimal disruption.
Drainage Investigation Methods We Use

- Dye Testing: introducing non-toxic dyes into a drainage system to trace water flow and identify leaks or cross-connections.
- Chamber Profiling & Manhole Inspections to assess structural integrity, safety, & potential issues.
- GPS or GIS Drain Mapping to create detailed maps of drainage networks to understand pipe layouts & connections.
- High-Pressure Water Jetting Investigation: clearing blockages with high-pressure water to facilitate thorough inspection of the drainage system.
- Fat, Oil, & Grease (FOG) Investigations assessing accumulations of FOGs that may cause blockages.
