Drainage maintenance is often not carried out because drainage failures are not usually detected in time. If drainage is not checked regularly, hidden malfunctioning drains can cause major problems for the house over time.
The description of the sewers includes a careful inspection of the condition of the piping and a written report. The report and the video make it easy to assess whether the drain needs further maintenance after the survey.
In the worst case, the drain may have collapsed, in which case the report will show where the system has been damaged. Damaged drains do not work properly, increasing the risk of water damage. With the report and video from the description, it is easy to request cost estimates from companies in the field.
A blockage or lack of drainage can be detected as spots on wall and floor surfaces or as loosening of tiles and coatings. A musty smell can be a sign of dampness in the structure. We recommend timely drainage maintenance to avoid these problems. Damp growing media are ideal places for mould and microbes to thrive.
Flushing the septic tank removes impurities from the pipes that do not belong there. Flushing allows us to effectively verify the condition of the drainage system. Flushing also helps us to see if enough drainage slurry has been used to allow water to move through the soil.
If the soil around the drainage pipe is not permeable, the flush water will stand in the pipe and the system will not work as expected.
Inspections and maintenance of the drainage network recommended by the Indoor Air Association:
● Inspection of the drainage network from manholes every year, inspection of the operation of the weir valves
● Drainage network cleaning every 10 years, drains flushed and photographed.
● Maintenance of sewage pumping stations every 5 years, inspection every year.
● Sewage pumping stations must have an alarm.
● Description of the sumps ● Flushing the sumps ● Searching for and digging up the sumps
● Draining septic tanks ● Raising septic tanks
● More extensive studies of the encapsulation system

Experimental excavation of the drainage system. The septic tank system is excavated for the study of the pit, from which
we will clarify the following issues:
● Installation of the cartridge ● Functionality of the capillary break
● The height of the drainage pipe, whether the pipework is installed deep enough ● The condition and quality of the pipework
● Operation and existence of a weir valve
● Anturan oblique casting

We mainly carry out impartial surveys for drainage system condition checks. If the client wishes, we will put the site out to tender for a suitable contractor.
A high recommendation if you are not familiar with the steps of the drainage renovation is to hire a supervisor. We constantly come across construction errors in new renovations. And we know how to insist and advocate for the client's best interests to ensure that the renovation is done in accordance with good building practices.
We constantly come across disputes in house sales where we have bought a house that should have a drainage system that meets current standards, but doesn't. We advise our clients on disputes relating to drainage systems.
Our aim is to find the right solution for your needs. In most cases, a simple description works best for drainage maintenance, but if a problem occurs, the problem must be removed or serviced. It is in the client's interest to have the maintenance and drainage survey done in the same place, as it is more difficult for companies to give a price estimate for a service based on a report from another company. Our company strives to serve the customer from start to finish in order to solve the problem and thus avoid major problems.
We are able to come and inspect and describe the drainage of your house, housing company or even larger property in the whole of Uusimaa. We will find out what condition the pipes are in and whether the drains need to be flushed or repaired. You can contact us easily by phone or using the form below and we will carry out the necessary work quickly and comprehensively.

The best time for drainage surveys is in spring and autumn because in spring the snowmelt water fills the drains with water and it is therefore easy to see how the drains are actually working. In autumn, the heavy rainfall puts a strain on the drains, so again the true functioning of the drains can be determined.
We use the water to flush the drainage pipe open, putting a large amount of water through the nozzles that carries the dirt out of the pipe and into the septic tank.
Drainage wells should be emptied when sediment is allowed to rise into the drainage pipe. If the sediment gets into the pipe it will cause a blockage.
A large proportion of the defects found in drainage systems have already occurred during construction. A drainage pipe installer may accidentally leave a plug in the pipe or an excavator may accidentally push the pipe together with a bucket. So yes, even new drainage systems are recommended to be photographed.
● 1-2 times a year, take a look in the drainage well to see if the water has risen higher than the drainage pipe.
● Order a drainage survey once every 10 years, if the drainage surveyor has recommended a more frequent flushing of the drains this should be followed.
● Older houses have outdated drainage systems, so it is easier for the drainage system to become blocked.
If a building suffers water damage due to a poorly functioning drainage system, this is not usually covered by home insurance. Therefore, we recommend that you be wise from afar and avoid major damage by having your drainage checked too often rather than too infrequently.
A drainage survey should always be carried out first to find out where the soil has accumulated and how much. This information will help to plan future maintenance.

Comprehensive repairs for the flushing and drying of drains can be carried out throughout the whole of Newfoundland
