Merrimac Plumbing & Drains provides comprehensive CCTV drain inspections for homes and businesses throughout Merrimac and the greater Gold Coast region. Using high-definition push rod and self-propelled drain cameras, we inspect sewer mains, stormwater lines, downpipes and under-slab pipework without breaking a single paver. Our footage lets us pinpoint the exact location of a blockage, crack, collapsed section or root intrusion, so any repair, relining or excavation work that follows is targeted and cost-effective. From newer builds around Merrimac to older homes closer to the Nerang River, we've inspected drains of almost every age and material.
If your drains are gurgling, backing up repeatedly, or you're after a pre-purchase drain survey before signing on a property, get in touch with our friendly Merrimac team to book a CCTV drain inspection at a time that suits you. We'll walk you through the footage, explain what we've found in plain language, and provide a written report you can keep on file or hand to your insurer, builder or body corporate.
Slow-draining sinks, gurgling toilets and musty smells around the yard are often the first sign that something isn't right further down the line. In many established Merrimac homes, tree roots from mature gardens find their way into ageing sewer and stormwater pipes, gradually narrowing the pipe and trapping waste. Left unchecked, this build-up can lead to a full blockage, an overflowing gully, or a burst pipe under the slab.
Other properties suffer from cracked, corroded or offset pipe joints caused by ground movement, older clay pipework, or root pressure over time. These defects are usually invisible from the surface, yet they can allow soil and water to infiltrate the line, causing subsidence, wet patches on the lawn, or a slowly sinking driveway. Without a camera inspection, it's difficult to know whether you're dealing with a simple blockage or a structural pipe failure.
A CCTV drain inspection removes the guesswork entirely. Our cameras travel the full length of the pipe, recording everything from minor scale build-up to a full collapse, so you know exactly what you're dealing with before any work begins.
Merrimac Plumbing & Drains combines modern CCTV drain camera technology with two decades of hands-on plumbing experience to give Merrimac properties a clear diagnosis, the first time. We send a camera through the affected line to see exactly what's happening, then explain our findings and recommend the most practical fix.
Every inspection comes with recorded footage and a written report you can rely on, whether that's for your own peace of mind, an insurance claim, or a conversation with your builder. If a repair, relining or excavation is required, we'll talk you through the options and confirm the fixed price before any work starts.
