Whether it’s a blocked sink, toilet, laundry trough, sewer or stormwater drain, we can clear the blockage and have your plumbing flowing in no time! Working across the Brisbane region, our master plumbers use specialised CCTV cameras to locate and clear most types of plumbing blockages.
Why You Should Get Regular Drain Inspections
If you’re like most homeowners, you probably don’t give your plumbing a second thought as long as it seems to be running smoothly. But at some point, you’ll likely face the inconvenience of a blocked or slow-draining sink, shower, or tub.
Regular drain inspections can detect burgeoning issues before there are even any signs something is wrong. Periodic inspections by a local residential plumber can identify small problems before they become a massive headache. Prevention is the best way to ensure you don’t have to deal with unexpected plumbing emergencies, costly repairs, or the disruption of your daily routine.
Common issues identified during a camera pipe inspection:
- Intrusion of tree roots: Tree roots seeking moisture often infiltrate pipes, leading to drain blockages and potential damage.
- Drain cracks: Pipes can develop cracks over time with age. If undetected, these cracks can lead to further damage.
- Debris: Accumulated debris like food scraps, grease, and other waste can lead to blockages and slow-draining pipes.
- Drain joint misalignment: Ground movements or poor installation can cause drain joints to misalign, disrupting smooth flow and possibly causing leaks.
How CCTV Pipe Inspections Work
Using fibre-optic CCTV drain cameras, we can access your plumbing quickly and unobtrusively. The CCTV camera cable is fed into the drains to visually inspect pipes for blockages, breaks, sagging or collapsed sections.
CCTV Drain Cameras offer an inspection method that minimises the need for excavating pipes. When used with a no-dig repair solution such as high pressure water jetters or drain relining, we can have your drains repaired with minimal disruption and digging. The camera cables are long enough to inspect any residential or commercial plumbing network and determine the exact location of the problem. We also use CCTV drain cameras to inspect the health of plumbing and provide full reports on the best course of action.
Our plumbing experts are trained to use advanced cameras to inspect your pipes. Through a simple 4 step process, we’re able to resolve the underlying issue and get your sewer or stormwater drains fixed and flowing once again.
1. Find the problem area
We’ll first gather as much information as possible about the history of the problem area or issue you’re having. For example, if you had tree roots cleared several years ago, that information can be very helpful.
2. Access the pipes
Once we’ve determined where we need to take a look, we’ll insert our CCTV camera through the proper access points or drains.
3. Identify the issue
Our high-end equipment gives us a very clear picture of your pipes. We’ll be able to assess the condition and visualise any cracks, breaks, or blockages. We’re able to record the footage and create a detailed report of our findings.
4. Remediation
Once the problem is diagnosed, we’ll recommend a solution that resolves your plumbing issue with with minimal disruption.

why use a CCTV drain camera
In Brisbane, damage to external drain pipes is common due to the climate. The dry weather leads to ground shifting which can lead to cracked pipes. Subsequently, this leads to plants seeking out the moisture from the leaking pipe causing further damage and blockages.
When it comes to blocked drains, a CCTV drain camera inspection is a reliable and affordable way to eliminate the possibility of a costly excavation.
CCTV drain camera inspections reduce the need to dig around your property to expose pipes leading to savings associated with machinery hire, labour and property rehabilitation. We understand no one likes to see their carefully maintained lawns and gardens dug up and we avoid this wherever possible.
A CCTV drain camera inspection will show your plumber if there is any damage to your pipes causing your blocked drain, or show if the blockage is caused by tree root infiltration or other foreign matter.
A drain inspection with a CCTV enables our expert plumbers to locate and identify the problem areas efficiently and quickly. It eliminates the requirement for major repairs as well as unnecessary disruption along with saving money and time.
No disruptions
our no-dig approach
No-dig repairs utilise our CCTV drain inspection technology to assess your plumbing. This way we are able to diagnose the problem without excavation and recommend a solution using our no-dig technology - stormwater and sewer pipe relining. A small portion of the pipe will need to be removed from where we will access your pipes from. Blockages are one of the main household plumbing issues that occur. With CCTV Inspection, we can find that blockage and clear it for you in no time at all using a high-pressure water jetter.
For cracked or broken pipes we may be able to install a patch or a new lining into the pipe. We feed the patch or lining via a small portion of external piping. Once completed, we replace the portion of the pipe, fitted to make sure it matches the existing pipe. This means minimal impact on the aesthetics of your house and much quicker turnaround times. Often plumbers use expensive, loud and obstructive excavation equipment to access areas of your plumbing network that require repairs. This is our last resort. We’re committed to using low impact, non-intrusive plumbing solutions to minimise inconvenient and damaging works to your property.
