A real person answers, day or night
On a wet sand flat, guessing where the fault sits is expensive
Every exploratory dig on the point fills with groundwater, so acting on a hunch wastes time and money. Call (02) 9072 0502 and we locate the fault precisely first, then excavate the single spot that counts.
Why a camera earns its keep on the point
The ground gives nothing away. Under a sandy block a fault might be a parted joint, invading roots or a sand shoal, and from the surface they look identical, so only a camera can tell them apart before quoting.
Digging blind floods fast. With groundwater just beneath the surface, an exploratory trench in the wrong spot fills with water and sand for nothing, exactly the waste a camera survey spares you.
Depth and position, not guesswork. The camera carries a locator, so we pinpoint the fault's spot and depth on the surface, letting a repair open one small hole rather than chase the line.

Core CCTV drain inspection services we provide
A survey answers what a clear alone never can, so we film, locate and report on drains wherever knowing beats guessing:
Blockage diagnosis
Recurring blockages get filmed live so you see whether sand, grease, roots or a collapse is behind them, which turns a repeat clearing into a one-time repair aimed at the real defect rather than the symptom.
Pre-purchase surveys
Before you buy on the point, a full camera survey of the drains shows whether the buried lines are sound or already parting in the sand, so the report informs your offer instead of becoming a nasty surprise later.
Pre-renovation checks
Ahead of a bathroom or kitchen renovation, we film the existing drains and map their runs, so the new work ties into pipe that is genuinely sound and nobody discovers a failed line once the walls are closed.
Locating and mapping
Using the on-screen locator we trace the exact route and depth of a buried drain across the block, noting it on the surface so excavation, relining or a new connection lands precisely where it needs to.
Where a survey saves the most on the point
Older lines near their limit
Tight foreshore access
Strata blocks with shared lines
Common problems a survey resolves
A camera turns the questions that stall a drainage job into plain answers, and these are the ones it settles most:
Faults nobody can place
When a drain blocks and no one can say where or why, the camera settles it in a single pass, showing the fault, its cause and its position so the quote is exact rather than a hopeful estimate.
Drains that keep returning
A line that chokes again within weeks of a clear has a defect the jetter cannot fix, and filming it reveals the cracked joint or root entry, so the next step ends the cycle for good.
Unknown pipe runs
Older properties on the point often have undocumented drains rerouted over the years, and a camera with a locator maps where every line actually runs before a renovation or a repair disturbs the ground.
Why looking before digging pays for itself
Guessing where a fault sits and digging to find out is the costly path on this terrain, while a camera turns the whole job into a known quantity before a shovel moves:
- You dig once, in the right place A located fault means one small excavation over the defect, not a run of wet exploratory holes across a sandy yard.
- The quote reflects reality Once the camera has shown the cause and depth, the fixed price covers the real repair, with no mid-job surprises when the ground opens up.
- A survey protects a purchase or a reno Knowing the drains are sound, or that a length needs relining, before you buy or build is worth well beyond the inspection.
How it works
How a drain inspection works, step by step
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0502 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.
- 02
Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Survey and report
After the quote is approved, we run a self-levelling drain camera through the line, record the footage, and give you a plain written report naming the fault, its cause, its depth and exactly where it sits on the run.
- 04
Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Dolls Point
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Dolls Point works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
Where we work
Areas we service
Our camera work reaches past the point into Sandringham, Sans Souci, Ramsgate Beach, Ramsgate and Beverley Park, locating buried drains for pre-purchase reports, renovations and blockages on the same low, sandy ground that hides its faults so well.
Good questions, straight answers
CCTV drain inspection questions Dolls Point locals ask
What does a camera drain inspection show?
It shows the inside of the line as it runs, so we can tell grease, roots, sand or a collapsed section apart and pin down precisely where and how deep the fault is.
Do I need a survey before buying a home here?
Strongly recommended, because the buried drains on these sandy blocks can be parting at the joints unseen, and a survey warns you before the price is agreed rather than after.
Can you find where a drain runs under my yard?
Yes, the camera has a built-in locator that pinpoints the pipe's path and how deep it runs from ground level, so we can note exactly where it lies before anyone digs.
Why bother filming a drain instead of just clearing it?
Because clearing removes the symptom while the camera finds the cause, and knowing whether roots, a collapse or sand caused the block is what stops you paying to clear it again.
How much does a camera inspection cost?
The inspection is quoted as one fixed written price before it starts, and like every visit the call out to get us there is $0.
Is the camera work backed by anything?
Yes, any repair that follows a survey is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, so if the work ever fails you are not charged to have it made right.
