FAQs
What is a camera drain inspection and how does it help open blocked drains?
A camera drain inspection involves feeding a high-resolution, waterproof video camera through your pipes. The live footage lets our licensed plumbers pinpoint the exact location and cause of the blockage—tree roots, grease, collapsed pipe, or a foreign object—without guess-work. Once we know what we’re dealing with, we can select the most effective clearing method (hydro-jetting, root cutting, or mechanical augering), saving you time, mess and repeat call-outs.
Why should I choose your cutting-edge camera plumbing service in Newcomb?
We invest in the latest CCTV technology capable of 360° pan-and-tilt views up to 100 m in length, so no defect goes unseen. Our locally based team is on call 24/7, offers upfront fixed pricing, and is fully insured and licensed under the Victorian Building Authority. Because we’re minutes away from central Newcomb, emergency jobs usually see a technician at your door within the hour.
What kinds of problems can the camera detect inside my drains?
The camera can identify root intrusion, grease build-ups, broken or misaligned joints, pipe corrosion, bellied or sagging sections, foreign objects, and even the overall condition of old earthenware or PVC pipes. It also records digital footage that we can email to you or your insurance company for documentation.
Will the camera inspection damage my pipes or garden?
No. The camera is slim, flexible and non-invasive. We access the drain through an existing clean-out or fixture, so there’s no need to dig up your lawn or break tiles. All equipment is cleaned and sanitised between jobs to prevent cross-contamination.
How long does a typical camera inspection and drain opening take?
Most residential inspections take 30–45 minutes, and clearing the blockage typically adds another 30 minutes, depending on severity. Complex commercial lines may take longer, but we give you a real-time progress update and a written report before we leave.
What does it cost, and do you guarantee your work?
In Newcomb, a standard residential camera inspection and basic drain clearing starts from $249, inclusive of the digital footage and written condition report. More extensive obstructions or additional jetting time are quoted upfront so there are no surprises. All workmanship is backed by a 12-month warranty on labour, and we honour manufacturer warranties on any replacement parts.
