At Pest Shield, we don’t just control infestations — we stop them from coming back. Our CCTV Pest Control drain surveys are designed specifically for pest control, using advanced cameras to inspect your drainage system and uncover cracks, redundant lines, or faults that rodents use to enter properties.
Pest-focused expertise — our technicians understand rodent behaviour and drainage systems.
Clear evidence — you’ll receive a full report with video and images of defects.
Comprehensive solutions — as well as surveys, we can:
Install stainless steel non-return valves to prevent rats pushing up from sewers
Repair benching (the concrete edges of inspection chambers) to seal gaps
Block off redundant lines that act as hidden rat highways
Local & trusted — serving Newcastle, Sunderland, Durham, Gateshead and across the North East.
Our drain surveys typically reveal:
Cracks, gaps, or displaced joints
Redundant or open drain branches
Collapsed or broken sections used by rodents
Signs of active rodent movement in the system
Access – We inspect through existing manholes or access points.
Survey – A high-definition camera identifies faults and entry points.
Report – You receive a detailed survey report with footage.
Repair & Proof – We fit non-return valves, repair benching, and seal redundant lines to stop rodent access.
Recurring rat infestations with no obvious surface entry points
Rodent sightings in kitchens, bathrooms, or lower floors
Ongoing problems despite previous treatments
Older properties or sites with complex drainage
If you’ve had repeated rat problems, the cause may be hidden underground. Our pest control drain surveys — combined with non-return valve installation, benching repairs, and sealing redundant lines — give you the evidence and long-term protection needed for peace of mind.
