Benefits Of A CCTV Drain Inspection
When we come out to tackle your blocked drain, if there isn’t an obvious cause of the blockage, we will usually deploy a cable-mounted video camera to inspect the interior of the pipe.
This will show us not only the condition of the pipe, but also provide a picture of the blockage. We can interpret the camera images, giving us a clear idea of what the blockage is, which enables us to decide what the best method is going to be to remove it.
In addition, if there’s an underlying cause of the blockage that needs work to prevent a reoccurrence, we can let you know what work is needed, based on the images from our CCTV system. We also provide same-day drain unblocking!

How does CCTV drain inspection work?
CCTV drain inspection involves the use of a cable-mounted video camera to inspect the interior of a drainage pipe. When a blockage is suspected and its cause isn’t immediately evident, this technology is deployed. The camera provides a real-time visual of the pipe’s interior, showing both its condition and any blockages present. This footage is recorded, allowing for playback and a thorough analysis of the pipe’s condition and the nature of the blockage.
What can be detected with CCTV drain inspection?
CCTV drain inspection can detect a variety of issues within a drainage system. Not only can it identify blockages, but it can also provide insights into what is causing the blockage. This technology can reveal the condition of the pipe, highlighting areas of wear, cracks or damage. Additionally, it can detect potential problem areas that might lead to future issues, enabling preventative measures to be implemented.
Is CCTV drain inspection safe for the pipe?
Yes, CCTV drain inspection is a non-invasive and safe method for assessing the condition of pipes. The camera is specifically designed to navigate the interior of drainage systems without causing any damage. It provides a clear view without the need for any disruptive or potentially harmful procedures. This technology eliminates the guesswork, allowing for targeted solutions without unnecessary excavation or alterations to the existing infrastructure.
Is a CCTV drain inspection suitable for both residential and commercial properties?
Absolutely. CCTV drain inspections are versatile and can be used for both residential and commercial properties. Whether you’re considering purchasing a new property or you’re a business owner looking to maintain the integrity of your building’s drainage system, this method provides a comprehensive view of all internal and external drainage lines.
How far can a CCTV camera inspect within the drainage system?
The range of a CCTV camera in a drainage system can vary based on the specific equipment used. However, modern CCTV drain cameras are designed to navigate and inspect extensive lengths of pipes, covering all internal and external drains of a property.

What is the significance of using modern technology like CCTV in drain inspections?
Modern technology, like CCTV cameras, offers a non-invasive and accurate way to inspect the condition of drains. It helps pinpoint the exact location and nature of blockages or damages, ensuring the most effective solution is implemented. Furthermore, with the aid of CCTV inspections, potential underlying causes of blockages can be identified, allowing for preventative measures to be taken. This technology also proves invaluable when assessing properties for purchase, as it provides a comprehensive view of the drainage system’s health. It ensures buyers are well-informed about potential plumbing issues.
Why is addressing blocked drains important?
Addressing blocked drains promptly is essential to prevent escalating issues. A neglected blockage can lead to extensive pipe damage, potential overflows and even health concerns due to the growth of bacteria in stagnant water. Furthermore, unresolved blockages can increase water bills due to the constant seepage and reduced efficiency of the drainage system.
What typically causes drains to become blocked?
Drains can become blocked due to a myriad of reasons. Common culprits include the accumulation of hair, grease and foreign objects that inadvertently enter the drainage system. Over time, mineral deposits can also build up, reducing the flow of water. Regular maintenance, along with being vigilant about what goes down the drain, can play an important role in preventing these blockages. Using modern technologies, like CCTV drain cameras, to monitor and assess the condition of the drainage system, ensuring timely interventions when needed.
