A real person answers, day or night
See exactly what is wrong before you ever dig up the yard
You cannot fix what you cannot see, and on a steep block a wrong guess means a wrong hole, so a camera first spares both the yard and the cost of digging blind, and (02) 9072 0502 books one.
Reading a drain you cannot dig up twice
On a flat block a wrong guess costs a bit of lawn, but on a valley slope here it can mean cutting a retaining wall or a stepped driveway to reach the wrong spot. That is why we locate before we lift a single paver.

CCTV inspection services we cover
A camera survey does more than confirm a blockage, it maps the line, locates the fault and hands you evidence, and that covers most of what people call us to inspect:
Camera surveys
Sending a self-levelling camera down a drain shows the whole run on screen in real time, so a slow or blocked line stops being guesswork and becomes a fault you can see, measure and plan a proper fix around it.
Locating the fault
Pairing the camera with a sonde lets us trace the exact position and depth of a problem from the surface, which on a steep hillside block means marking the intended dig right over the fault rather than somewhere hopeful nearby.
Pre-purchase checks
Before buying or renovating one of these old bungalows, a camera down the sewer reveals the true state of pipes nobody has looked at in decades, turning a hidden liability into a known quantity you can properly price up front.
Footage and reports
Every inspection leaves you with the recording and a plain report showing what we found and where, the evidence an insurer, a conveyancer or a strata manager needs before signing off on any drainage insurance claim or a property sale.
What the camera finds under a tightly held home
These double-brick bungalows change hands slowly, so many drains have not been inspected since they were laid before the war. A camera is often the first proper look in three generations.
Original clay, unrecorded
Buying with eyes open
What a camera commonly turns up
A survey on these blocks tends to reveal the same handful of faults, and seeing them on screen is what decides whether the answer is clearing, relining or a dig:
Root intrusion
The commonest thing the camera turns up here is a mat of fine roots pushing through a parted earthenware joint, drawn from the bushland and old gardens, the very intrusion that starts most blockages on these blocks.
Bellied pipe
A bellied section shows on screen as a pool of standing water where a hillside line has sagged out of true, a hollow that gathers waste and explains a drain that keeps slowing without ever fully clearing.
Cracks and offsets
Cracked barrels and offset joints, where lengths of clay have shifted apart under the moving ground, appear clearly on the footage and tell us whether a spot repair, a liner or a full replacement is the right answer.
Why an inspection is worth it
Guessing at a hidden drain is how a minor fault becomes a major dig, so here is what a camera down the line actually buys you before any spade goes in the ground:
- No digging on a hunch A located fault means one small, targeted hole instead of a trench chasing the pipe. On a stepped, walled block that difference is what the whole job costs.
- The right fix, first time Seeing the pipe tells us whether it needs a clear, a liner or a replacement, so you are not paying twice for the wrong remedy on a drain nobody could see.
- Evidence you can use The footage and report back up an insurance claim, a pre-sale disclosure or a quote, turning a your-word-against-theirs situation into a documented fact.
How it works
The steps in a drain camera inspection
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0502 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.
- 02
Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Survey and locate
The moment you give the go-ahead, the plumber feeds the camera the length of the line, records the run, locates any fault from the surface, and talks you through exactly what the screen shows before recommending a fix.
- 04
Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Bardwell Park
An inspection is only as useful as the plumber reading the screen, so it helps that the person locating your fault already knows how these drains behave.
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 Bardwell Park 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
Camera inspections run right across the district as well, out to Bardwell Valley by the course, north to Earlwood, along the T8 line through Bexley North and Turrella, and south to Bexley wherever a drain needs eyes.

Good questions, straight answers
CCTV inspection questions Bardwell Park locals ask
Why bother with a camera instead of just clearing the drain?
On these old clay lines a clear only buys time, whereas a camera shows whether the pipe is sound or failing, so you fix the actual cause rather than paying to unblock it again.
Can you find exactly where the problem is under the yard?
Yes, a sonde on the camera head pinpoints the fault's exact position and depth from above, so on a steep sloping block any dig stays a single, precisely placed hole.
Should I get a drain inspection before buying an old bungalow?
It is well worth it, since the sewer under a ninety-year-old house is the one part no building inspector sees, and a camera turns that blind spot into a costed known quantity.
Do I get to keep the footage?
Yes, you keep the video and a written report of what turned up and where, which is exactly what an insurer or a buyer's conveyancer will want to see on file.
What do you usually find down there?
On these blocks the camera most often turns up root intrusion at a cracked joint, a bellied low spot holding water, or offset lengths of clay that have pulled apart underground.
Is there a call out fee for a camera inspection?
No, the call out is $0 and the fixed price for the inspection is set before we start, so you know the full cost of the job the moment you book it.
