Cost of CCTV Drain Survey in Mansfield (2026)
CCTV Drain Survey in Mansfield works out at £130 to £350 per survey in 2025, give or take.

About cctv drain survey in Mansfield
Mansfield is a medium town of around 107,000 in Nottinghamshire. The housing is mostly a mix of Victorian terraces, inter-war semi-detached housing and modern new-build estates. That matters: older properties usually mean more pipework, rewiring and retrofit surprises, while newer builds in districts like NG18, NG19 tend to be quicker jobs with standardised fittings. Local trade prices sit below the UK average. Lower contractor overheads and shorter distances across Nottinghamshire do most of the work.
East Midlands pricing sits a touch below the national average. Nottingham, Derby and Leicester are the higher end; smaller towns are noticeably cheaper. Plenty of Travis Perkins, Selco and Howdens branches across the region means parts rarely hold a job up.
Plumbing pricing comes down to parts and access. CIPHE and WaterSafe are the marks of a properly trained plumber; Gas Safe if they're touching a boiler. Out-of-hours emergency rates are roughly one and a half to two times the standard hourly, and some firms have a minimum callout. Unvented cylinders need a G3 ticket specifically — not every plumber holds one.
