What is a CCTV Drain Survey in Tamworth?
Using advanced control camera technology that records video and other useful information that may be utilised to identify drainage problems, a CCTV drainage evaluation assesses drainage systems.
You must place a camera into your drainage system to inspect for damage. A CCTV camera system helps us discover issues more quickly and precisely, which helps us successfully conduct repairs.
Types of CCTV drainage camera systems in Tamworth
Robotic crawlers and push CCTV drainage cameras are the two major camera types that could be employed for your CCTV drain examination Tamworth.
A panel inside a specialised truck controls a robotic crawler camera. The camera is mounted in a durable shell, and all it needs to move through the pipe is an electric motor to power its wheels. These cameras are currently offered in a wide range of diameters, ranging from 150mm to 2000mm, thanks to technological advancements. LED lighting additions allow for the recording of HD-quality video as well. We can pinpoint precisely what is really causing the clogged drains thanks to the articulating arms, rotating camera heads, and zoomable lenses that are part of our cameras.
When a pipe has a smaller surface area, is vertical, or may have bends that are challenging for a robotic crawler to operate, a push CCTV drainage camera is more frequently used. These cameras include flexible rods that may be manoeuvred by the operator along the pipe and are stored on a compact reel. A monitor is positioned above the reel to track the camera’s movement. To inspect the inside of the pipe and identify issues, these cameras also have LED lights.

CCTV Drain Surveys and Extensions Tamworth
It’s crucial to consider drainage while building an addition to your Tamworth home because it can be impacted. For instance, the local sewage undertaker may need to approve your extension if it crosses or is located close to a public sewer. Additionally, if a building is constructed over an existing drain or sewer, the pipes may be harmed, leading to leaks, blockages, odors, and possibly even health problems and environmental harm. We can accurately represent the current drainage system using our technologies and determine whether any upgrades are necessary before the extension is built.
