Why Get A CCTV Drain Camera Inspections For Your Everton Hills Homes
Drain problems can happen for lots of reasons in Everton Hills and we know how annoying it can be. Here's some of the main reasons why camera inspections are so valuable for local homes:
Tree Root Invasion
Tree roots constantly seek moisture and find it in your drain pipes through even the smallest cracks, then they grow bigger and create massive blockages. This is common for homes throughout Everton Hills and near Bunyaville Conservation Park deal with this constantly due to the suburbs eucalypts, native trees and grevilleas.
Aging Clay Pipes
Being decades old means most of Everton Hills homes have 30-60 year old clay and galvanised drain pipes which crack and corrode over time as well as PVC joints that can separate and sagging pipes that create bellies where water pools. Reactive clay soils in this area also cause ground movement affecting pipe bedding.
Recurring Blockages and Stormwater Issues
If your drains keep blocking every few months even after cleaning, there's usually an underlying problem. It's common that we see collapsed sections of pipe, tree roots, or incorrect pipe grade allowing water to pool. During heavy Brisbane storms, Everton Hills properties often experience stormwater overload and sewer surcharge, especially in lower lying areas.
Our Start to Finish CCTV Drain Inspection Process In Everton Hills
Not sure what happens during a CCTV drain camera inspection? Here's our step-by-step process from booking to getting your detailed report so you know exactly what to expect.
Book Your Inspection
Call us on 0482 979 551 and tell us what drain problems you're having. We'll find out where you're located in Everton Hills, which drains are causing issues, and what symptoms you're seeing so we can get to you fast, we usually book same day inspections and often arrive within a few hours.
Arrival At Your Property
We arrive at your Everton Hills home with our high-definition CCTV drain camera system. Our cameras have powerful LED lights to see clearly inside dark pipes, and they're on flexible cables that can go around bends and through your entire drain system. We can inspect most pipes from 40mm bathroom drains up to 300mm sewer mains. The camera sends live video to our screen so you can watch along and see exactly what we're finding inside your drains.
Conduct CCTV Drain Inspection
We feed the camera through your drain lines from existing access points like inspection openings, vent pipes, or cleanouts. As the camera travels through your pipes, we meticulously look for blockages , tree roots, cracks, collapses, incorrect grades, pipe bellies, junction problems and corrosion. The camera has a locator beacon so we can mark exactly where problems are on your property. This process often takes between 30 to 60 minutes.
Explain Findings and Provide Solutions
After the inspection, we'll go through the video footage and explain what we found in plain English. We'll point out any problems, tell you how serious they are, and recommend the best solutions. If repairs are needed, we'll provide an upfront fixed price quote so you know exactly what repairs will cost before making any decisions about fixing your Everton Hills drain problems.
What Our CCTV Drain Cameras Can Find In Everton Hills
Modern drain cameras are amazing at revealing problems that were impossible to see before. Here's what we commonly find inside Everton Hills drains when we conduct camera inspections:
Tree Roots Growing Inside Pipes
One of the most common problems we find in Everton Hills, especially in properties near Bunyaville Conservation Park. Our cameras show exactly where roots are getting in, how extensive the intrusion is, and whether the pipe needs trenchless pipe relining or replacement.
Cracked and Broken Drain Pipes
Older clay and galvanised pipes can crack from ground movement caused by reactive soils, tree roots, or just age. We'll accurately find the size and location of cracks, whether they're hairline fractures or complete breaks. Small cracks let roots in and get bigger over time while major breaks can cause sewage to leak into the ground, creating soft spots in your yard.
Collapsed or Crushed Pipe Sections
Sometimes pipes can collapse completely, usually from excessive ground movement, heavy vehicles driving over shallow pipes, or deterioration. Our CCTV cameras show us exactly where the collapse is and how much pipe needs replacing. This is serious issue because collapsed pipes stop draining completely and often require excavation to fix. We find this often in Everton Hills properties where driveways or gardens were added over existing drain lines.
Pipe Bellies and Incorrect Grades
Pipes should slope downward so water flows away from your house but sometimes ground settling creates low spots called bellies where water and debris collect. Over time, bellies trap solids and cause blockages. We also commonly find pipes installed at the wrong angle, making drainage slow which is often found in older installations or DIY renovations done without proper permits.
Foreign Objects Stuck In Drains
You'd be surprised at the things we find inside drains. We've seene everything from kids toys, tools and even general household debris. CCTV drain inspections show exactly what's stuck and where, so we can remove it without any guess work.
Grease and Scale Buildup
Kitchen drains often have thick grease coating the inside of pipes, reducing flow. Bathroom drains get scale buildup from hard water and soap. The camera shows how much buildup there is and whether high pressure water jetting will clear it or if pipes need replacing.
Junction and Connection Problems
Where pipes join together, connections can separate, be misaligned, or installed incorrectly. The camera clearly shows junction problems that cause leaks or create catching points where debris builds up. We often find this in Everton Hills homes that had kitchen or bathroom renovations where new pipes connect to old ones. Poor connections are also common where your property's pipes join the Unitywater sewer main.
When Should You Get A CCTV Drain Camera Inspection
If you're not sure if you need a camera inspection, here are some situations where it's definitely worthwhile getting an inspection:
- Before Buying An Everton Hills Home: Older homes in established can often have extensive undetected damage which is why it's important to find these problems before buying so you can negotiate or request repairs, especially for properties with big trees or homes over 40 years old.
- Recurring Drain Blockages: If your drains block every few months, you've got an underlying problem. This is a tell tale sign you have a drainage issue and it's often caused by things like tree roots, collapsed pipes, or incorrect pipe grades.
- Slow Draining Fixtures: When sinks, showers, or toilets drain slowly and cleaners don't help, getting a CCTV camera inspection can reveal why. Slow drainage is an early warning sign of bigger problems developing in your drains.
- Strange Smells From Drains: Bad smells mean sewage is leaking or blockages are causing stagnant water. Our cameras pinpoint the source, things like cracked pipes, dry P-traps, or blockages.
- Wet Patches or Soft Ground In Your Yard: Persistent wet areas or soft ground that won't dry out can indicate broken drains leaking underground. We can find underground leaks without digging up your whole yard, so we only excavate the exact spot needed for repairs.
Your Next Steps After We Inspect Your Drains
The camera work is just the beginning. Here's how we help you move forward with clarity and confidence:
Walk Away With Documentation You Can Use
You'll receive captured images and video clips showing exactly what's happening inside your pipes, marked locations pinpointing where each issue sits on your property, and a severity breakdown so you understand what matters most. This is handy for insurance purposes, settlement negotiations, or simply keeping track of your home's plumbing health over time.
Straight Answers, No Upselling
Not everything we find needs fixing today. We'll break down what requires urgent action versus what you can keep an eye on for now. Minor root infiltration? Often manageable with periodic maintenance. Significant root damage or structural failures? Those need addressing sooner rather than later. Tiny fractures might be worth monitoring, but a pipe that's given way completely can't wait. We give you the honest picture and let you decide.
Clear Pricing Before We Pick Up A Tool
When repairs make sense, you'll get a locked in quote upfront with no ballpark figures that balloon later. We walk you through the scope of work, expected timeframes, and any impact on your yard or property access. For properties around Everton Hills, typical solutions range from high pressure jet blasting for root removal through to pipe relining for cracked sections or full excavation where pipes have failed entirely.
