Drain & Sewer Inspections

In houses around Adelaide which are 30 plus years old to have your drain cleaned every 8 to 12 months is not unusual, but having a blocked drain every few months is not normal.  It’s not only blocked drain lines that may cause the need for a Camera Inspections, it could be the smell of sewer gas from a broken sewer line or the sinking of ground due to wet soil where sewer has leached through from a broken sewer pipe which can also call for a Camera Inspection.  

Also see our article on how much a plumbing inspection costs.

In suburbs throughout Adelaide where the soil is highly reactive it can put great pressure on the drains buried under ground over time causing fractures and cracking of the pipes which can be the cause of various problems around your property, things like movement in foundations and rising moisture can all be problems relating back to this and may need a Camera Inspection to identify the source of the problem.
