See Inside Your Wavell Heights Drains
Wondering what's really going on with your drains? Our CCTV cameras show you exactly what's happening inside your pipes. No guessing, no digging, just clear footage of what we find. This is especially valuable in Wavell Heights where many homes still have original post war drainage from the 1940s and 50s.
Our Wavell Heights plumbers send a waterproof camera through your pipes while you watch the live feed on our monitor. You'll see any cracks, root intrusion, buildup, or damage for yourself.
Get Your Aging Wavell Heights Pipes Checked Today
Wavell Heights was developed mainly by the Queensland Housing Commission after World War II. Those 1940s-50s homes have clay and terracotta drainage systems now pushing 80 years old. While some are still going strong most others have cracks, collapsed sections, or heavy root invasion. The only way to know for sure is to look inside with a camera.
Whether you're dealing with recurring blockages, buying an older home, or planning renovations, CCTV inspection gives you the facts before you spend money on repairs that might not fix the real problem.
What Our Cameras Find in Wavell Heights Pipes
-
Excessive Tree Root Growth
The established gardens and large street trees that make Wavell Heights beautiful are a major threat to underground plumbing. Our cameras pinpoint the exact spot where roots have forced their way into pipe collars, allowing us to decide if a high-pressure flush or a more permanent relining is required.
-
Ground Movement and Snapped Joints
Wavell Heights sits on reactive clay soils that expand and contract. This ground shrug puts immense pressure on older, rigid pipes which is why CCTV allows us to see where these forces have caused joints to snap or pull apart, ensuring we only repair the damaged section rather than digging up your entire yard.
-
Fat and Grease Accumulation
In many local homes, years of cooking grease and household soap have narrowed the internal diameter of the pipes. We use cameras to locate these thick sludge deposits, ensuring our high-pressure jetters are targeted effectively to restore your drains to their original flow capacity.
-
Stormwater Silt Buildup
For properties closer to the Kedron Brook catchment and lower lying pockets of the suburb, silt and mud often settle in stormwater lines after heavy rain. A quick camera check can reveal if your pipes are full of dirt, preventing messy yard flooding during the next storm season.
How Our Wavell Heights CCTV Inspection Works
-
Book Your Inspection
Call us and describe the problem. We ask about your property age, which fixtures are affected, and what symptoms you're seeing to decide if CCTV is the right first step.
-
We Find Access Points
We arrive with our fully equipped van and locate the best spot to insert the camera, usually at a drain junction, inspection pit, or cleanout point on your property.
-
Live Camera Feed
We guide the camera through your drains while you watch the monitor. You'll see pipe material, condition, blockages, roots, cracks. Ask questions any time.
-
Report And Options
You get a written report, video file, and clear repair options with fixed quotes. You decide what to do next with full knowledge of what's actually happening.
Smart Diagnosis Before Expensive Repairs
Many Wavell Heights property owners jump straight to digging or expensive repairs without knowing what's actually wrong. CCTV inspection is the smarter approach that can save you thousands:
-
Stop Guessing, Start Knowing
See the problem clearly before committing to any repair. If a pipe is cracked, it needs relining. If roots are light, jetting might be enough. We never do unnecessary digging on your property.
-
Buying A Wavell Heights Home?
Pre purchase CCTV inspection is vital in this suburb with so many older properties. Find out if you're inheriting problem drains before you sign. Use our report to negotiate repairs into the sale price.
-
Documentation For Insurance
Professional CCTV reports support insurance claims for damage and provide documentation for warranty claims. Keep your video and report on file for future reference or when selling.

Why Guessing About Drains Costs You Money
Without professional equipment, diagnosing drain problems is nearly impossible. You might guess it's roots when it's actually grease, or assume a small blockage when your main line is partially collapsed. These mistakes lead to wasted money on repairs that don't fix the real problem.
Common Guessing Mistakes
Trying to diagnose drains without a camera often results in:
- Wrong repair approach: Jetting won't fix a cracked pipe, and relining won't clear simple grease clogs
- Repeated blockages: Without knowing the root cause, problems keep returning and bills add up
- Avoidable pipe damage: Aggressive plunging or harsh chemicals can worsen existing cracks
- Missed major problems: A collapsed section might go undetected until it causes flooding or sewage backup
