Frequently asked questions

What is a CCTV drain camera inspection?

A CCTV drain camera inspection involves inserting a small, high-definition camera into your plumbing system. The camera provides real-time visual feedback of the inside of your pipes, allowing our plumbers to identify blockages, structural damage, pipe deterioration, and root intrusion — accurately and without any digging.

When do I need a drain camera inspection?

A drain camera inspection is recommended when you have recurring drain blockages, are purchasing a property and want to know the condition of the drainage system, before any pipe repair or relining work begins, or when investigating slow drainage, foul smells, or wet ground above drain lines that may indicate a structural pipe problem.

Does a drain camera inspection require digging?

No. CCTV drain camera inspections are non-invasive — no digging or excavation is required. The camera is inserted through an existing access point, and your property and landscaping remain completely intact during the inspection.

What problems can a drain camera detect?

A CCTV drain camera can detect blockages and their location, cracked or collapsed pipe sections, tree root intrusion, corroded or deteriorated pipe walls, failed pipe joints, and any structural concerns affecting the drainage system. It gives our plumbers a definitive view of the pipe interior before recommending any repair or maintenance.
