CCTV Drain Inspections in Illawong
1000+ five-star reviews

A real person answers, day or night
Book a CCTV inspection
Call (02) 9072 0517 and describe why you're calling, whether that's an active fault, sizing up a property before buying, or getting a jump on renovation planning.
Confirmed blockage that just needs clearing? Blocked drains handles that directly.
When a camera pass makes sense
| Situation | What it settles |
|---|---|
| Buying a property | Whether the pipework matches what the building report actually said |
| Blockages that keep returning | The real cause, rather than clearing the same symptom on repeat |
| Renovation or extension planned | Whether the existing line can take the extra load being added |
| Recently repaired section | Whether it's genuinely holding up, not just assumed fine |
Telling faults apart on screen
Tree roots, a cracked join, ground movement and simple age don't look alike once a lens is actually inside the pipe. Treating them as interchangeable is how a homeowner ends up paying for a repair that never addresses the real fault.
Footage also picks up trouble well before it turns into a symptom anyone in the house would notice. A fault caught this early is routinely a far smaller, lower-cost fix than the same fault left to become a full blockage.
Where we work
Why the bigger blocks around here matter
Illawong's typical block, especially along streets like Fowler Road and Brushwood Drive, carries a noticeably longer run of pipe between the house and the street connection than a smaller suburban lot.
Extra pipe means extra distance for a fault to develop somewhere out of sight. Relying on what's visible near the house tells you almost nothing about a hidden issue thirty or forty metres further along, which is exactly the blind spot a full-length camera pass closes.
What's included with every visit
The footage and a plain-English summary of what was found, and where, are handed over on the spot
Existing access points get used wherever possible
Locating the access point on an established block
Not every drainage access point on an older block is obvious from the surface. Properties from the original 1970s-90s development wave don't always have theirs marked, so part of a proper inspection is confirming exactly where the line runs and where it can genuinely be reached.
On a larger block, that often means more than one access point along the run, particularly where a property backs onto reserve land near Old Ferry Road Reserve or Blaxland Drive Reserve. Each one gets checked so nothing along the line is left unseen.

Why choose Your Plumber Illawong
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Illawong works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
Where we work
Areas we service
This same CCTV inspection standard extends to Alfords Point, Bangor, Menai, Barden Ridge and Padstow Heights.

Good questions, straight answers
CCTV inspection questions locals ask
Purchasing an older Illawong home, is a drain camera worth arranging before the sale settles?
Worth doing beforehand every time, plenty of drainage faults never turn up in a routine building inspection, and finding out after settlement is a considerably more expensive way to learn the same thing.
On a bigger block with a longer stretch of pipe, does an inspection take noticeably longer?
Somewhat longer, more length simply means more to check, though it's rarely a dramatic difference, and any genuinely time-consuming section gets flagged and explained rather than rushed through.
Does the footage from an inspection actually get handed over afterward?
Every time, both the footage and a written summary come standard with the visit, useful to keep on file or pass along to a buyer, tenant or property manager.
Can an inspection catch a fault before it's actually caused any visible symptoms?
Yes, early-stage cracking or root intrusion frequently shows up on camera well before it ever turns into an actual blockage or backup that forces the issue.
