What points to the cause
Symptoms & cause
Without camera footage, it is easy to misread a blockage as a simple clean when the pipe is cracked, full of roots, or damaged further down the line.
The right method
How it gets fixed
The camera records pipe condition, fault location, direction, depth indicators where available, and the likely repair path.
Service focus
Camera-first diagnosis
A self-levelling camera is fed through the line to record roots, cracked or displaced joints, collapses, and foreign objects — pinpointing the fault and its location along the run so any repair is quoted from footage, not a guess.

Questions people ask
Do I need CCTV for every blocked drain?
Not every time. It is most useful for repeat blockages, property purchases, suspected roots, damaged pipes, or unclear outdoor drainage issues.
Can CCTV find tree roots?
Yes. Camera footage can show root entry points, root mass, damaged joints, and whether the pipe may suit relining or needs another repair.

Drain Relining
Drain relining can repair suitable damaged pipes from the inside, avoiding a full trench when the pipe condition and access allow it.
View service
Stormwater Drains
Blocked stormwater drains often show up during heavy rain, when pits overflow, driveways flood, or water sits around the house.
