What Is a CCTV Drain Inspection?
A CCTV drain inspection is a non-invasive way to inspect the inside of your drains and pipes using a small waterproof camera attached to a flexible rod.
The camera sends live footage back to a monitor so our technicians can see exactly what’s going on inside your pipes in real time. No digging. No guesswork. No unnecessary damage to your property.
We can identify:
✅ Blockages and build-up
✅ Root intrusion from trees
✅ Cracked, collapsed, or broken pipes
✅ Displaced or misaligned joints
✅ Corrosion and deterioration
✅ Foreign objects causing blockages
