CCTV Drain Inspection Sydney
Drain camera inspection to find the cause of recurring blockages, suspected pipe damage and sewer issues — before any repair work is recommended or approved.
What it is
See inside your drain before spending on repairs
A CCTV drain inspection uses a specialist drain camera to travel inside your pipe and return live footage of its condition. The camera identifies exactly what is happening — whether it is root intrusion, cracked sections, joint failures, pipe deformation, or a simple debris blockage — so the right repair can be recommended with confidence.
CCTV inspection is the step that separates guesswork from evidence. For any job where pipe relining is being considered, inspection is essential — it confirms which sections are damaged, whether the pipe shape is suitable for a liner, and where the access points are. We never recommend relining or structural repair without inspecting the pipe first.
When to book it
When CCTV drain inspection is worth doing
Most useful when the symptoms suggest there is more happening than a simple one-off blockage.
Our process
How a CCTV drain inspection works
From access to findings in a single visit. No guesswork, no unnecessary work.
Access the drain
We locate the nearest inspection point or gully access and introduce the CCTV camera into the line.
Run the camera through the pipe
The camera travels through the drain recording live footage. We stop to examine any areas of concern — roots, cracks, offsets, sediment or foreign objects.
Explain the findings
We show you what the camera found, explain what it means for the drain and tell you what the next step should be — whether that's clearing, relining or monitoring.
Provide a clear scope and quote
If repair is recommended, we provide a written scope and fixed quote before any work proceeds. For relining, the CCTV footage defines the exact sections to be treated.
