Stormwater Drain Inspections

Prevent Flooding, Protect Your Property & Maintain Proper Drainage

At Drainspex, we provide professional stormwater drain inspections to ensure rainwater is being safely and effectively directed away from your property. Using high-definition CCTV drain cameras, we assess the internal condition of stormwater pipes, identify defects, and provide clear reports with photos and video evidence.

Stormwater issues often go unnoticed until they cause flooding, erosion, or property damage. A professional inspection allows problems to be identified early and rectified before they become costly.

What Is a Stormwater Drain Inspection?

A stormwater inspection involves inserting a specialised waterproof camera into your stormwater pipes to visually assess their internal condition. This allows us to locate defects, restrictions, and installation issues without excavation.

We commonly identify:

  • Cracked or broken stormwater pipes

  • Pipe separations or joint failures

  • Root intrusions

  • Collapsed or deformed sections

  • Debris and sediment build-up

  • Blockages and restrictions

  • Incorrect pipe fall or poor installation

  • Unconnected or illegal connections

This non-invasive method provides accurate diagnostics without the need for digging.

Why Stormwater Inspections Matter

Stormwater pipes play a critical role in protecting your home from water damage. If these systems fail, it can lead to:

  • Flooding around buildings

  • Water entering garages or subfloors

  • Soil erosion

  • Foundation movement

  • Structural damage

  • Mould and moisture issues

Many of these problems develop underground and remain unnoticed until significant damage has already occurred.

  • Silt and debris buildup

  • Tree root intrusions
