How Does Our CCTV Drain Inspection Work?

Even a well-planned drainage system can develop cracks, leaks, clogs, or bursts over time. While there are various ways to check each section manually, we offer a quicker and more efficient solution—CCTV drain inspection. It delivers real-time video feedback, helping our plumbers diagnose problems on the spot.

Here is how our camera survey works:

Camera Insertion

We begin by inserting a waterproof CCTV camera through an access point in the drain.

Flexible Navigation

The device is attached to a long, flexible rod that our specialists navigate through bends and tight corners in the pipe.

Live Video Capture

As it moves through the pipes, the camera captures real-time video footage of the internal condition.

Thorough Pipe Inspection

Our plumbers carefully manoeuvre the device to inspect every segment of the drainage system. As licensed professionals, we handle this equipment without causing any damage to the system.

Real-time Monitoring

The video feed allows us to identify hidden issues like hairline cracks, root intrusions, misaligned joints, or partial blockages. You’ll get a detailed report of our findings before we suggest any repairs.

Rectification

Fixing blocked drains on the spot prevents small annoyances from turning into costly disasters. That’s why we recommend the most favourable solution that complies with the building codes and safety standards.

When Do You Need a CCTV Drain Inspection?

There’s nothing more frustrating than a drain that keeps acting up, even after repeated repairs. Even a minor leak can throw off your entire day. If the same issue continues to repeat, there’s likely an underlying problem in the system. That’s where our drain camera inspection service comes in handy.

With Melbourne’s rapid urban development, underground drainage systems are increasingly affected by nearby construction and shifting soil. That’s why drain camera inspections are becoming increasingly essential for both homeowners and businesses. It’s a smart way to catch early warning signs before they turn into major repair jobs.

Common reasons to get your drains inspected by our professionals include:

Persistent clogging and blockages
Slow water drain
Foul odours emanating from pipes or the sewer line
Unexplained increase in water bills
Planning to purchase or renovate a property
Post-repair checks to ensure the problem is resolved
Preventive maintenance for older systems
