Are you dealing with persistent drain issues but dreading the thought of extensive digging and disruption to your property? At Lakeside Plumbing & Gas, we understand this concern, which is why we recommend advanced drain camera inspection, an innovative technology that has revolutionised how we diagnose and address plumbing problems.
What Is a Drain Camera Inspection?
A drain camera inspection involves inserting a waterproof, high-resolution camera attached to a flexible rod into your drainage system. This allows our technicians to view the inside of your pipes in real-time, identifying issues without invasive procedures.
Key Benefits of Choosing Camera Inspections
1. Accurate Problem Diagnosis
Traditional plumbing diagnostics often involved educated guesswork. With drain cameras, we can:
- Precisely locate blockages, cracks, or collapsed sections
- Identify the exact nature of obstructions (tree roots, grease buildup, foreign objects)
- Determine the condition of your pipes throughout the system
This accuracy means we solve the actual problem, not just the symptoms.
2. Minimally Invasive Solution
One of the most significant advantages of camera inspections is their non-destructive nature. Before this technology, diagnosing drain problems often required:
- Digging up yards, driveways, or floors
- Removing sections of walls
- Extensive property disruption
Our camera inspections eliminate these invasive measures, saving your property from unnecessary damage.
3. Cost-Effective in the Long Run
While some might view camera inspections as an additional expense, they actually save you money by:
- Preventing misdiagnosis and unnecessary repairs
- Reducing labour costs associated with exploratory digging
- Identifying potential issues before they become costly emergencies
- Extending the lifespan of your plumbing system through targeted maintenance
4. Preventative Maintenance Benefits
Camera inspections aren’t just for existing problems. Regular inspections can:
- Identify developing issues before they cause failures
- Document the condition of your plumbing system over time
- Help create a targeted maintenance plan for your specific system
5. Peace of Mind for Property Buyers
Purchasing a new property? A drain camera inspection provides valuable information about:
- The condition of the existing plumbing system
- Potential future repair costs
- Negotiation leverage if problems are discovered
