CCTV Drain Inspection for Granville Homes

A CCTV drain inspection means feeding a waterproof camera down the line and watching the footage in real time, not guessing from the surface.

It finds cracked joints, root intrusion, collapsed sections, grease build-up and straightforward blockages exactly where they sit.

It's just as useful confirming a line is sound as it is finding a fault.

The same camera pass works whether the job is a pre-purchase check, a repeat-blockage mystery, or confirming a previous repair actually held.

Nothing about the process changes based on what we expect to find. The camera goes down the line either way, and the footage decides the next step, not an assumption made beforehand.

Reports come with the actual footage, not just a summary written up afterwards. That matters if the inspection ends up supporting a strata claim, a sale, or simply a second opinion down the track.

Granville's housing runs across several distinct eras, from pre-1940 weatherboard and fibro cottages through to the newer apartment stock going up close to the station.

Two homes on the same street, even along a stretch like Woodville Road, can be running on completely different generations of pipe, one still on original earthenware, the other on modern PVC laid within the last decade.

From the footpath, there's no way to tell which is which.

A camera survey removes the guesswork entirely, showing the actual pipe rather than assuming its condition from the age of the house above it.

That matters most on a property changing hands, where nobody wants a nasty surprise showing up on the first heavy flush after settlement.

It matters just as much on a rental, where a landlord wants a straight answer before authorising anything, and a tenant wants the problem actually fixed rather than papered over.

A single line, once we're set up and access is sorted, is usually wrapped up well within the visit.

A full property survey covering several lines, or a longer run out to the street connection, needs more time, flagged upfront rather than guessed on the day.

On mixed-era streets like Granville's, that time can run a little longer than average, simply because there's more history to check on a property that's changed hands or been extended more than once.

Either way, the sequence stays the same: access the line, run the camera, record what it finds, and hand over a clear answer rather than a vague impression.

We'll talk through the footage on the spot too, not leave you waiting on a follow-up call to find out what it actually meant.

The footage is yours to watch too, not a verbal summary handed over after the fact.

The crew running the camera is the same licensed plumbing team that can act on what it finds, not a separate inspection-only contractor passing the job along.

If a repair follows, that work carries our lifetime labour warranty like every other job on our books.

Nobody's handed off to a different company to actually fix what the camera turns up.
