Cctv Drain Inspection for Mount Roskill Homeowners
If you are dealing with slow drains, recurring blockages, or unexplained wet patches in your yard, ASR Group Ltd can get to the bottom of it quickly. We provide professional CCTV drain inspection services across Mount Roskill and the wider Auckland area, using modern camera technology to see exactly what is happening inside your pipes.
Mount Roskill is home to a large number of properties built between the 1950s and 1980s, many of which still have original clay or concrete drainage systems. These older pipes are prone to cracking, joint displacement, and tree root intrusion, especially in streets with mature trees like those found near Richardson Road and Hillsborough Road. Our inspections give you a clear, documented picture of your drain condition so nothing is left to guesswork.
What’s Included in Our Cctv Drain Inspection
When you book a drain camera inspection with ASR Group Ltd, you get a thorough look at your entire drainage system from access point to connection, along with a detailed report of anything we find.
High-Resolution Camera Survey
We use a flexible, waterproof CCTV camera that travels through your drain pipes and transmits live footage to our technician above ground. The camera captures every section of your drainage run, including bends and junctions. This gives us an accurate, visual record of your pipe condition without any excavation.
Fault Location and Mapping
When the camera identifies a problem, we log its exact depth and distance from the access point. This is especially useful for Mount Roskill properties where council drains run close to private laterals. Precise fault location means any follow-up drain repairs are targeted and efficient, avoiding unnecessary digging.
Written Inspection Report with Footage
After the inspection, you receive a written report that explains what was found in plain language, along with recorded footage. This documentation is useful for property sales, insurance claims, or Auckland Council compliance records. We walk you through the findings so you fully understand the condition of your drains before deciding on next steps.

When Do You Need a Cctv Drain Inspection?
There are several situations where a camera inspection is the right call for Mount Roskill property owners. Knowing the warning signs early can save you from a much larger repair bill later.
Slow or Blocked Drains That Keep Coming Back
If your kitchen sink or bathroom drain keeps blocking up even after being cleared, there is likely an underlying structural problem. A camera inspection reveals whether roots, grease build-up, or a collapsed section is causing the repeated issue. Clearing the symptom without finding the cause is a short-term fix at best.
Older Properties in Mount Roskill with Clay Pipes
Many homes in the Mount Roskill area around Stoddard Road and Dominion Road were built with clay earthenware pipes that have been in the ground for 50 to 70 years. These pipes can crack, shift at the joints, or be invaded by roots from large trees that line many of the older streets. A drain camera is the only way to confirm whether your pipes are still structurally sound or due for drain maintenance.
Pre-Purchase Drain Checks Before Buying a Home
A standard building inspection does not include a check of the underground drainage system, which is one of the most expensive things to repair on any property. Arranging a CCTV drain inspection before you settle on a purchase in Mount Roskill can reveal hidden faults that affect the property value. It is a small cost compared to being surprised by a collapsed drain after you have already moved in.
If you have noticed any of these warning signs, do not wait for the problem to get worse. Contact ASR Group Ltd and book an inspection before a minor issue turns into a major repair.
Our Cctv Drain Inspection Process for Mount Roskill Homes
Schedule Your Consultation
Call our team or submit an enquiry online to arrange your drain camera inspection in Mount Roskill. We will confirm a time that works for you, including same-day bookings when availability allows. You do not need to do any preparation before we arrive.
Assess Your Drainage Layout
When we arrive at your property, our technician reviews the drain layout and identifies the best access point for the camera. We consider the age of the property, the pipe material, and any known problem areas before starting. This preparation means the inspection runs smoothly and covers the full extent of your drainage system.
Run the Camera and Document Results
We insert the CCTV camera and guide it through your drain pipes, recording footage of every section. If we find a blockage, crack, or root intrusion, we note its exact location and depth. For properties needing further work, we can also discuss options like root cutting or pipe repairs on the same visit.
Present Findings and Recommend Next Steps
Once the inspection is complete, we go through the footage and report with you in plain terms. If repairs are needed, we explain exactly what is involved and provide a clear, itemised quote. There is no pressure, and you leave the conversation knowing exactly what your drains need and why.
