Advanced CCTV camera technology has provided Online Pipe & Cable Locating with an effective way to diagnose almost any issue with underground pipes and help customers save time and money. 

The following is our list of The Top 5 benefits of CCTV camera inspections:

    1. No excavation required – unlike traditional methods which are more expensive and more time consuming.
    2. No-dig and non-destructive – Because CCTV camera inspection does not require digging or excavation, it is completely non-destructive. This means the cost of inspection and or diagnosis of a problem is minimal compared to breaking up above ground structures and excavation in order to get to the pipe or asset.
    3. Real-time results and reporting – Our technicians are able to view the internal pipe structure, blockages, and condition in real-time and also have the ability to record the entire inspection process on DVD and prepare Reports on findings
    4. Cost-effective – CCTV camera inspections are the most efficient way to determine the condition and possible issues within pipes, drains, and sewers. Through CCTV you eliminate the costs of excavation just to identify issues.
    5. Fast and precise – CCTV inspections can pinpoint issues quickly and deliver reports and results faster than any other method.
