What is Drain Corrosion?

In the case of drainage, corrosion occurs when pipes age or are exposed to various chemical substances. It could also be because of plumbing incidents, such as corrosion-causing drain cleaners that damage PVC pipes. Corrosion can cause a variety of issues including leaks or blockages that could cause lasting damage. But, determining the exact location of problem could be difficult.

how CCTV Drain Inspection Does It Work

CCTV cameras enable us to carry out an in-depth inspection on the draining system without the necessity of digging which could cause damage to your yard or property.

The procedure is easy:

  • We put a fiber-optic device attached to a flexible cable into the drain.
  • The camera can capture high-resolution pictures of the inside of your drain pipes. These are then transmitted to our team working in our Control Center.
  • Our trained technicians make use of these images to determine the source of any problems within the pipe, e.g. corrosion.


What is the reason to use CCTV for inspection?

Environmental pollution earthquake activity, shifting soil, patterns of rainfall may all contribute towards blocking of pipes. Therefore, it is imperative to swiftly identify and resolve these issues before they become worse. Here’s why CCTV inspections are useful:

  1. Correct Identification Inspections of CCTVs give exact information about what’s going on inside your pipeline, eliminating destructive investigation that could have resulted in the wasting of time and funds.
  2. Cost-effective Since the excavation and digging work is required, it will save both manpower resources and the expense of material.
  3. Stop Future Problems Our technicians can identify any issues, no matter how small within the pipework using high-resolution cameras which permit an early intervention that will prevent any further problems.
  4. Efficiency Our team of surveyors is able to diagnose and produce precise reports on the spot, allowing rapid decision-making regarding remedial actions.

Conclusion
