CCTV Inspection

 

For CCTV inspections, Drain Doctor uses high-tech CCTV equipment to investigate and assess the cause of blocked drains. CCTV inspections are crucial when there are problems in drains. Drains block for many reasons and it is essential to physically see the problem before undertaking any major work.

It’s a quick and easy process. Our Closed Circuit Television technology enables us to quickly and accurately detect the cause of the problem; precisely locate the blockage; and assess and any other contributing factors.

Most importantly, with CCTV drain inspections, it ensures you have all the necessary information before commencing work. Without this information, it is difficult to recommend an appropriate solution to clear the blockage. CCTV inspections, along with our sonar tracing equipment, enable us to pinpoint the exact location and depth of the blockage. What’s more, it eliminates the need to dig up the ground, therefore avoiding unnecessary work and costs.

On completion of the CCTV inspection, we can show you on DVD exactly what the problem is. We will then discuss with you the most appropriate solution.

Drain CCTV Inspection

When undertaking any drain CCTV inspection, our sophisticated and high-tech drain camera is inserted into the drain or pipe. It is then fed along the pipe and records direct to DVD all images. Our technicians provide additional commentary to clearly and fully explain all observations relating to the blockage or blocked drain. This commentary is also recorded direct to the DVD.

Once the blockage has been identified using our drain CCTV technology, the technician then utilises a feature of the camera head to determine the ground depth of the blockage as well as its precise location. The technician can then mark the 'block/blockage' area on the ground above. This specialised drain CCTV technology enables us to accurately locate the blockage to within 100mm.
