A drain camera can reveal what cannot be seen from a grate or fixture. CCTV inspection is useful when a drain keeps blocking, a damaged section is suspected or more information is needed before deciding on repairs.
A closer look at your drainage
The camera is introduced through a suitable access point and moved along the accessible pipe. Debris or standing water can obscure the view, so clearing may be needed first. The findings help distinguish a removable obstruction from defects such as root entry, joint displacement or a broken section.
Problems we assess
- Recurring drain blockages
- Suspected roots, cracks or damaged joints
- Information to guide targeted drainage repairs
Looking beyond the visible symptom
The first visible sign may be at a fixture even when the affected connection is elsewhere. Providing access to nearby service points helps the plumber consider the system rather than treating the symptom in isolation.
Using existing footage
Earlier footage can help compare a known section with its present condition. Tell us when it was recorded and whether any clearing or repairs have taken place since, as the older view may no longer reflect the line.
Communicating the findings
If someone else will approve the work, arrange how they can receive the findings and pricing during the visit. That can prevent a delay between identifying the problem and deciding on the next step.
Discussing the next step
Tell us about previous blockages and any known inspection openings. For shared Eastern Suburbs buildings, arrange access with the responsible owner or building manager before the visit.
