CCTV Drain Camera Inspection
Drain Camera Inspection
CCTV Drain Inspection, also known as Closed Circuit Television Drain Inspection, is a method of inspecting the inside of a drain or sewer using a camera that is inserted into the pipe. The camera is connected to a monitor, which allows our technician to see the condition of the inside of the pipe and identify any issues such as blockages, cracks, or damage.
During the inspection, our technician will move the camera through the pipe, capturing video footage of the inside of the pipe. Our technician will also be able to take still images of any areas of concern, which can be used to make a diagnosis and determine the best course of action for repairs.
CCTV Drain Inspection is a non-invasive method of inspecting pipes and is often used to diagnose problems such as blockages, damage, or leaks. It is also used to locate the exact location of the problem, which can save time and money when it comes to repairs. The inspection process is also environmentally friendly as it does not require any excavation.
CCTV Drain Inspection is commonly used for both residential and commercial properties, for example, it can be used to inspect the condition of the sewer lines, stormwater drainage, and even to check the condition of the pipes in a building before purchase.
Do cracks in my home mean I have a drain issue ?
Cracks in your home can be caused by a variety of factors, and it’s not always an indication of a drain issue. However, in some cases, cracks in the walls or floors of your home can be caused by problems with the drainage system. Here are a few ways that drain issues can cause cracks in your home:
- Settlement: If the soil around your home shifts or settles, it can cause the foundation to become unstable, resulting in cracks in the walls or floors. This can happen if there is a problem with the drainage system around the foundation, such as a blocked or clogged drain.
- Hydrostatic pressure: When there is a blockage in the drainage system, the water that is supposed to flow out of the pipes is trapped and the pressure starts to build up. This pressure can cause the pipes to burst or crack, which can result in leaks and water damage to your home.
- Tree roots: Tree roots can cause blockages in the drainage system and can also damage the pipes. If the roots grow into the pipes and cause them to crack or break, it can result in leaks and water damage to your home.
If you notice cracks in your home, it’s important to have a professional inspect the area to determine the cause. If the cracks are caused by a problem with the drainage system, Plan B Plumbing can diagnose and fix the issue.
It’s worth to note that cracks in the walls and floors can have many causes, such as soil movements, natural aging, and lack of maintenance. A professional assessment is the best way to determine the cause of the cracks.

- Peace of mind: Knowing that your drains are in good condition can give you peace of mind when you purchase your new home. You can be confident that you are making a wise investment and that your home is in good condition.
