Good reasons to use a camera
- The blockage returns after cleaning or jetting.
- Tree roots are likely near the stormwater line.
- You suspect a broken, squashed, or collapsed pipe.
- You need evidence before repair, excavation, or a property decision.
What CCTV can show
A drain camera may reveal root intrusion, displaced joins, silt, cracked pipe, foreign objects, poor fall, or a collapsed section. That makes it easier to decide whether the next step is jetting, cleaning, repair, or replacement.
