5 Reasons Why You Should Have Your Drains CCTV Inspected

CCTV drain cameras are not just beneficial for plumbers… they’re also fantastic for homeowners. First of all, they rule out the guesswork and make it easy to determine the route cause of drainage problems in a short time space. This means plumbers don’t have to test for each potential problem one by one.

This isn’t the only advantage though, experienced plumbers who use this technology can also view the internal pipe structures and view potential problems in real-time. This allows for preventative measures to be taken.

Still not convinced? Here are 5 Reasons Why You Should Have Your Drains CCTV Inspected.

1.     They’re Important for Solving Blocked Drain Issues

One of the most common reasons for needing a CCTV pipe inspection is to establish the cause of a blockage or damage to an underground pipe. CCTV pipe inspections serve as a non-invasive way of inspecting underground and remove all the guesswork out of repairing pipes. A CCTV inspection can easily find blockages before they get out of hand and then through using other tools it can be removed in no time!

2.     They Can Predict Any Possible Issues when Buying a New Property

Most potential homeowners understand the importance of having a building inspection before purchasing a new property. This allows you to uncover foundational damage or structural danger. The same goes for ensuring everything is in working order underground. If you want to uncover if there are any pipe issues, potential blockages or damage, a CCTV pipe inspection is a great option.

3.     They can Ensure no mishaps when renovating

Are you finally wanting to install your dream pool, or perhaps you want to build a new retaining wall? It’s always wise to be sure of where your current plumbing runs before you start digging! A CCTV pipe inspection can help you work out where the new structures can fit without endangering existing plumbing structures. It can also prevent a digger from accidentally hitting your pipes and resulting in a costly emergency plumbing bill.

4.     They can maintain a healthy tenant and landlord relationship

If you’re a property owner who is renting out their home, having a CCTV drain inspection between tenants can be handy for preventative maintenance. Regularly reviewing and cleaning your pipes can help prevent potential blockages and late-night calls from your tenants. Additionally, they can serve as protection if it is found a tenant is misusing the drains.

5.     Signs of movement

Do you suspect your building is showing signs of movement? These issues could be a sign of water jeopardising your foundations. A damaged pipe can leak water and soften the ground under your property, which will make it shift over time. Foundational fixes can be extremely costly. Having a CCTV pipe inspection can help prevent these future costs.
