Drain Cleaning & CCTV

Melbourne

CCTV drain camera inspection, high pressure jetting and repairs for sewer, stormwater and process drains. We find the cause of the problem before recommending a fix.

Drain Cleaning and CCTV Inspection for Industrial and Commercial Sites

Drains on industrial sites take a beating. Fibre, grit, fats, chemicals and heavy vehicle loads all cause blockages, collapsed sections and root intrusion. When a main drain backs up, wash down stops, amenities close and sometimes production stops too.

SWR Plumbing clears, inspects and repairs drains for industrial, commercial and residential properties across Melbourne. Our CCTV drain cameras show exactly what is happening inside the pipe, so the repair is based on evidence rather than guesswork.

Drain Services

  • CCTV drain camera inspection: recorded footage with location of faults, blockages and damage.
  • High pressure jetting: clearing grease, fibre, silt and roots from sewer, stormwater and process drains.
  • Pit and trench drain cleaning: collection pits, grated drains and trade waste lines.
  • Drain repairs: excavation and replacement of broken sections, or relining where it suits the site.
  • Pre purchase and pre lease inspections: drain condition reports for property transactions.
  • Scheduled jetting: regular cleaning of drains that block repeatedly.

Find the Cause, Then Fix It

Clearing a blockage without knowing why it happened often means calling the plumber back a month later. After clearing a drain we run the camera through it to check for cracks, displaced joints, sags, root entry or build up that will cause the next blockage.

On industrial sites, repeat blockages often come from process residue, poor falls or drains that were never designed for current loads. We report what we find with footage and photos, and recommend practical options such as scheduled jetting, additional cleanouts, screens or replacing a problem section.

Drain Cleaning and CCTV FAQs

How much does a CCTV drain inspection cost?

It depends on access, the length of drain and whether the line needs clearing first. We provide a price before starting and include footage and findings with the report.

Do I get a copy of the camera footage?

Yes. We supply footage and a summary of faults with their approximate locations.

Can you clear drains blocked with process waste?

Yes. High pressure jetting clears most fibre, grit, grease and silt build up. For repeat problems we recommend scheduled jetting or changes to the drain.

Is relining better than digging up the drain?

Sometimes. Relining avoids excavation but depends on the pipe size, condition and bends. We recommend the most practical option after the camera inspection.

Do you service homes as well as industrial sites?

Yes. We clear and inspect drains for homes, businesses and industrial sites across Melbourne.
