A real person answers, day or night
Seeing inside the pipe beats digging up the garden every time
A drain that blocks for the third winter straight deserves better than another blind clear and a hopeful invoice. A camera pass shows the fault on screen while you watch, turning repeat call-outs into one informed decision about the actual repair. Ring (02) 9072 0520 and see it for yourself.
Clay, sandstone and roots: what this peninsula sends the camera

What a CCTV inspection covers
Every camera pass we run plugs into the wider drainage picture, and covers four things:
See the full line
One continuous pass from the boundary trap through to the junction records every metre, so nothing between access points escapes notice, and the dated footage becomes the baseline any future inspection can be measured against.
Diagnose before digging
Instead of excavating on the chance of finding the fault, the camera confirms whether you are dealing with roots, a cracked clay joint, a sagging run or simple debris, so the quote that follows rests on evidence.
Locate the entry point
Where roots have breached a joint, the footage shows which joint it was, how much bore the mass still leaves, and whether rotary cutting, relining or a targeted dig is the response that actually holds.
Keep the evidence
You receive a recorded file plus a plain-language rundown of each finding, ranked from urgent to watch-and-wait, so the decision about the repair gets made with the picture in your hand.

What the footage usually reveals
Two patterns dominate around the peninsula, and both are visible long before a total failure:
The repeat blockage
A line that clears and then blocks again within months almost always hides a root mass regrowing through the same cracked joint, and the camera shows precisely where that entry sits before it becomes another wet-evening call-out.
The quiet weep
Lush strips of lawn, sunken soil or recurring damp patches point to a line seeping at a displaced joint, and a pass confirms whether the pipe has cracked or parted outright, because those are very different jobs.
Why it matters: the cost of not looking
Skipping the camera rarely saves money. It defers the bill and usually enlarges it:
- Repeat clearing adds up Every blind clear of a root-bound line buys months at best, and the annual spend soon outstrips one permanent repair chosen from footage.
- Cracks become collapses Clay joints open wider each winter, and the run that needed relining this year may need excavation next, under an established garden you then have to reinstate.
- Sewer faults travel indoors A failing line backs gully traps up into bathrooms and laundries, and where a full blocked sewer is brewing, the footage separates targeted work from open-ended digging.
How it works
How the inspection process works
Four steps, and you watch most of them happen on screen:
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0520 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
Run the camera and show you
Your plumber feeds the camera through the line from the nearest access point, records every metre to a file you keep, and pauses at each crack, offset joint and root intrusion so the footage explains the quote in real time.
- 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 Lugarno
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 Lugarno 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 across the whole peninsula and beyond, so whether your place sits in Peakhurst Heights, Padstow Heights, Illawong, Alfords Point or Peakhurst, the same equipment, the same fixed written price and the same on-screen walkthrough apply, with travel between neighbours measured in minutes rather than half days.
Good questions, straight answers
Drain inspection questions Lugarno locals ask
When is a camera inspection worth booking?
Any drain that blocks again after clearing, backs up with no obvious cause, or leaves damp patches and sunken soil in the yard deserves a camera look, because guesswork costs more than evidence.
Can the camera show tree roots inside a pipe?
Yes, the footage pinpoints the exact joint where roots entered, the size of the intrusion, and whether cutting, relining or excavation offers the lasting response your particular line genuinely needs.
Do I receive a recording of the footage?
You keep a recorded file of the whole pass along with a plain-language rundown of each finding, so the report supports quotes, insurance questions and later comparisons of pipe condition.
How long does a typical inspection take?
Most residential passes are finished within an hour or two depending on line length and access points, and you watch the footage live on screen during the visit itself.
Do cameras work on stormwater as well as sewer lines?
Both line types take the camera, and sloping blocks around here often need stormwater checks too, since silt build-up, crushed runs and root ingress at gullies show up clearly on screen.
What happens if the inspection finds a fault?
Your plumber explains the findings on screen, hands over a fixed written price for the recommended repair, and the choice to proceed now or monitor the line stays entirely yours.
