For over 20 years, Albion Plumbing & Drains has helped Albion homeowners and business owners see exactly what is happening inside their pipes before committing to costly repairs.

Using high-definition drain cameras and sonde locating equipment, we diagnose issues with genuine accuracy rather than assumption. This local knowledge, paired with two decades of hands-on experience, is why residents across Brisbane's inner north continue to call on us first.

Common Drain Problems

Wondering What's Really Going On Beneath Your Property?

Albion's leafy streets and established gardens are lovely to look at, but established trees also mean established root systems, and tree roots are one of the most common causes of blocked and cracked drains we uncover during CCTV inspections in the area. Combined with older clay pipework common in many of the suburb's character homes, this can lead to recurring blockages, slow-draining sinks and unpleasant odours that keep returning no matter how often you clear them.

Other properties face different issues altogether, including cracked or offset joints from ground movement, root intrusion in stormwater lines, or a belly forming in an ageing sewer pipe. Left undiagnosed, these problems can lead to wet patches on the lawn, soggy garden beds, structural damage under the slab, or sewage surcharge during heavy rain. A proper drain camera inspection gives you the full picture, rather than paying for repeated call-outs that never address the underlying cause.

    Our Solution

    How Albion Plumbing & Drains Diagnoses Your Albion Drainage Issues

    Albion Plumbing & Drains sends a high-definition CCTV drain camera directly into your pipework to locate the precise cause and position of any fault, giving you clear, evidence-based answers instead of guesswork. This no-dig approach means less disruption to your Albion property, faster diagnosis and a straightforward plan for repair.

    • Sonde locating and drain mapping to mark pipe paths and depths before any digging begins
    • Sewer main camera surveys from the gully or inspection point through to the council connection
    • Post-clean verification CCTV to confirm jetting or root cutting has fully cleared the line
    • Pre-purchase drain inspections with a written report for buyers and conveyancers
    • Under-slab pipe camera inspections to find breaks without breaking concrete

    Every inspection is backed by timestamped footage and a plain-language written report, so you understand exactly what we found and why we recommend a particular repair, whether that is high-pressure water jetting, pipe relining or a straightforward patch repair.

      FAQs

      Your CCTV Drain Inspection Questions Answered

      CCTV drain inspections raise plenty of questions from Albion property owners, especially if this is your first time considering one. Below, our team answers the questions we hear most often, drawing on years of hands-on experience in Brisbane homes and businesses.

      A CCTV drain inspection involves feeding a small, waterproof camera attached to a flexible rod through your pipework. As the camera travels along the line, it sends a live video feed back to our plumber, allowing us to see the exact condition of the pipe walls, joints and any blockages or damage. This gives us a genuine, evidence-based understanding of what is happening underground, rather than relying on guesswork.
      If you are dealing with recurring blockages, slow-draining fixtures, gurgling noises, bad smells around your yard or unexplained damp patches on your lawn, a camera inspection is usually the quickest way to find the true cause. It is also worth considering before buying a property, before committing to relining or excavation work, or simply as a health check for older drainage systems.
      Yes, tree roots are one of the easiest issues to identify on camera. Roots typically enter through small cracks or loose joints and grow along the inside of the pipe, which shows up clearly on the footage. Once we know exactly where the roots have entered, we can recommend the most appropriate solution, whether that is root cutting, high-pressure jetting or a more permanent repair to stop them returning.
      No, a CCTV inspection is a non-invasive process. The camera and rod are designed to move smoothly through your existing pipework without causing additional wear or damage. This is exactly why it is such a valuable tool, letting us assess the true condition of your drains without digging or disturbing your property first.
      It is a sensible precaution, particularly for older homes or properties with established trees nearby. A pre-purchase drain inspection can reveal issues such as root intrusion, cracked joints or ageing pipework that would not be visible during a standard building inspection, giving you a clearer picture of any repairs you might need to plan for before settlement.
      Yes, we provide timestamped footage along with a written report that clearly explains our findings in plain language. This documentation is commonly accepted by insurers, builders and certifiers as evidence of the condition of a drainage system, making it a useful record to have on hand if a dispute or claim ever arises.
