CCTV pipe inspection is a revolutionary technology that has completely changed the way professionals inspect sewer pipes and drains. It combines advanced camera technology with robotics and software to solve problems, making the job much easier and more accurate. It’s also non-destructive and completely affordable, so it’s the ideal solution for a wide variety of pipeline problems.
CCTV sewage and drainage inspections are an essential part of every sewage and drainage service. They enable plumbers to examine sewer pipes and drains without damaging the pipe and causing further damage to the environment, which is often a huge concern for customers.
During a CCTV sewer or pipe inspection, a long video cable is fed through the piping and then attached to a camera that can be used to project an image on a monitor inside the property. This means that the inspector can inspect the entire piping system from one location.
This is a very useful way to discover small cracks, buildups of oil and fats or even a minor invasion of roots from vegetation that could cause a full break in the future if left unchecked. As a result, you can make a preventative repair or maintenance plan before it’s too late.
It can also be invaluable when a neighbour is planning to do building work nearby, such as installing a fence or building a swimming pool, which could potentially impact your home’s pipes. By having a CCTV pipe inspection carried out before any building work takes place you can ensure that any issues are identified and dealt with quickly.
The CCTV pipe inspection process is very simple, allowing the technician to conduct a thorough exploration of your property. As well as the video footage, they can offer voice-over explanations of their findings and photographs of any problematic areas.

When you hire a company to carry out CCTV sewage and pipe inspections, they’ll usually insert a reel of reinforced video cable into the piping. This reel is attached to a winch that allows the operator to lower and retrieve the video equipment.
Once the camera has been inserted into the line, it will record high definition video of the pipe and its surroundings. This is then stored on the control unit.
CCTV sewage and pipe inspections are safe for the environment because they don’t require any digging up. Moreover, they only use electricity for a short period of time to power the camera. This saves energy on the plumber’s end, which can help cut back on the cost of a job.
They can also provide information on what’s going wrong with the piping and can be very helpful when you have to make insurance claims. The evidence that the CCTV camera footage can provide can be incredibly valuable if you want to claim on your policy.
