Why Use A CCTV Camera Drain Inspection?

In the old days, fixing a mysterious blocked pipe meant tearing up your pristine driveway, lawn, or garden beds just to find the issue. Not anymore. With a modern CCTV drain inspection, we send a rugged, waterproof camera right down into the belly of your plumbing network. This allows our team to view real-time footage of your pipes’ structural integrity on our monitors, pinpointing the exact location and cause of your plumbing headaches instantly.

What Can Our Drainage Cameras See?

We don’t believe in half-measures. When we run a comprehensive sewer or stormwater line diagnostic check, our specialized equipment spots every hidden flaw, including:

  • Tree Root Intrusion: Catching aggressive roots that have cracked their way into your lines before they cause a collapse.
  • Misaligned Pipe Joints: Finding sections where the ground has shifted, creating jagged lips that snag waste.
  • Cracked or Collapsed Lines: Identifying structural breaks in older earthenware, copper, or PVC pipes.
  • Foreign Objects & Sludge: Spotting severe grease build-ups, wet wipes, and debris restricting your water flow.
  • Sagging Pipes (Bellies): Locating low points in the line where water sits stagnant and creates chronic blockages.

Critical Signs Your System Needs A Camera Check

Wondering if you actually need to call out a CCTV drain inspection team? Give us a buzz if your property is dealing with any of these annoying issues:

  • Multiple fixtures (sinks, showers, toilets) are draining slowly at the same time
  • A foul, sulphur-like sewage smell wafts up from your floor wastes or yard
  • Toilets that glug, bubble, or gurgle loudly whenever you run the washing machine
  • Sewer access points or grates in your yard are overflowing with murky water
  • A recurring blockage that keeps happening every few months despite being cleared

After blasting out a blockage with our water jetter, we run the camera back through to prove the line is 100% clean and undamaged.

We feed the high-res camera through your line, recording all structural flaws and measuring the exact distances.

3. Honest Breakdown

We sit down with you on-site, show you the footage, explain the problem and provide a clear plan to repair it.

FAQ

CCTV Drain Inspection FAQs

Do you provide copies of the camera footage?

Too right we do. If we find structural damage or major issues that require repair, we can provide you with clear video files and reports so you can see the proof with your own eyes.
Our specialized reels can push deep into domestic and commercial networks, easily reaching up to 60 meters down a line to track down even the most distant blockages.
No, the camera is strictly for looking and diagnosing. However, we carry high-pressure water jetters on our trucks, meaning once the camera spots the issue, we can clear it right then and there.
