Drain Camera Inspections
Persistent blocked drains, slow sinks, gurgling toilets, or unexplained damp patches are signs of hidden plumbing problems.
With drain camera inspections, our experienced team at Paterson Plumbing removes the guesswork and gives you a clear picture of what’s happening inside your pipes.
Using a tiny waterproof camera and sonde locator, our licensed plumbers can trace the exact location and depth of issues such as tree-root intrusions, cracked pipes, or collapsed sections—all in real time, without unnecessary excavation. This means we only dig where required, saving you money and protecting lawns, gardens, and driveways.
Whether for a residential home, commercial premises, or industrial site in Adelaide, our camera and locator technology provides efficient, cost-effective, and non-invasive plumbing solutions.
Accurate diagnosis prevents wasted labour and allows us to recommend the most effective long-term solution. Once complete, we’ll provide images, video footage, and a detailed report so you can make informed decisions about repairs.


CCTV drain inspections are not only ideal for troubleshooting ongoing blockages but also invaluable for pre-purchase property inspections.
Knowing the condition of a property’s drains before you buy can save thousands in unexpected repairs.
At Paterson Plumbing, we combine cutting-edge technology with four generations of plumbing expertise to deliver peace of mind and premium service. Book your CCTV drain inspection today and take the uncertainty out of your plumbing problems.
