FAQs
What is “advanced diagnostic gear” in commercial plumbing and why is it important for Mascot businesses?
Advanced diagnostic gear refers to specialised electronic tools—such as high-definition CCTV drain cameras, acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging cameras and digital pressure loggers—that allow our technicians to look inside pipework and pinpoint faults without excavation. For Mascot’s factories, offices and hospitality venues this means faster fault finding, accurate repair planning, less downtime and lower overall maintenance costs.
How does CCTV pipe inspection benefit my commercial property?
A CCTV inspection involves feeding a self-levelling, high-resolution camera through your sewer or stormwater lines. The live video shows internal pipe condition, blockages, root intrusion and structural defects. Because we can see exactly what is happening, you avoid guesswork, unnecessary digging and repeat blockages—saving both money and business disruption.
What types of problems can your leak-detection equipment identify?
Our ultrasonic and acoustic leak detectors can locate hidden leaks in copper, PEX and steel pipes behind walls, under slabs or in ceilings. Thermal imaging cameras reveal hot-water line leaks, insulation failures and moisture pockets, while pressure loggers expose intermittent pressure drops often caused by pin-hole leaks or failing valves. Detecting these issues early prevents water damage, mould growth and inflated utility bills.
Will the diagnostic process disrupt my daily operations?
In most cases, no. The majority of our diagnostic tools are non-invasive and quiet. CCTV cameras enter via existing access points, acoustic sensors simply touch the pipe surface, and thermal imaging is contact-free. We schedule work outside of peak trading hours whenever possible and can isolate sections to keep critical services running.
How quickly can you attend a diagnostic call-out in Mascot?
Because we’re locally based and service Mascot daily, we offer same-day response for urgent diagnostic issues and within 24 hours for routine inspections. Our fully equipped vans carry all major diagnostic instruments, so we can perform testing and deliver on-the-spot findings during the first visit.
Do I receive a report after diagnostics are completed?
Absolutely. You’ll receive a comprehensive digital report that includes high-resolution images or video stills, leak locations marked on floor plans, condition assessments and recommended remediation options. This documentation is invaluable for budgeting, insurance claims and compliance with Australian Standards or facility management protocols.
