Drain camera inspection or cleaning?

Understand when cleaning can restore flow and when CCTV can help investigate the cause.

Cleaning clears an obstruction

Drain cleaning is used to remove material restricting a pipe, such as roots, leaves or sediment. If a blocked stormwater line is the problem, clearing the obstruction can help water move through it again.

A camera helps investigate the pipe

A CCTV drain camera lets the operator look inside accessible sections of the line. It can help locate an obstruction or identify visible defects such as displaced joints. Access, standing water and the blockage itself can limit what the camera can see.

Which comes first?

A camera may help when the cause or location is unclear. A heavily obstructed line may need clearing before the camera can see further. Tell Drain Vac whether the drain is completely blocked, slow to clear or has already been cleaned.

Ask what the findings mean for your property

If you are booking drain cleaning in Warrnambool for a recurring problem, ask whether a camera inspection could help identify why it keeps coming back. Keep any previous inspection notes handy so the team can compare the findings.
