Running a CCTV camera down a drain to find the fault

A 1964 suburb built out in one long stretch

Chifley was gazetted its own suburb in 1964 and grew from Depression-era Crown-lease blocks into freestanding post-war brick homes on generous gardens, and that single-era build-out shows clearly in the pipework:

  • Original 1950s-60s brick homes on the suburb's bigger blocks Commonly still carry galvanised supply lines that corrode from the inside, showing up as weak pressure or a rusty tinge at the tap.
  • The multi-storey public housing added through the 1960s, alongside the newer knockdown-rebuilds and townhouses now replacing original homes Brings a completely different plumbing profile again, from shared risers to entirely new supply and drainage.

Clay pipes on a slow-draining sandplain

  • Vitrified clay sewer and stormwater lines laid for that first wave of houses are now sixty-plus years old and cracking at the joints Letting in roots from established street trees on one hand and fine grit from the deep Botany sands underneath on the other.
  • A blocked line here is rarely one simple cause Tree roots and fine sand often turn up together on the same camera run.
  • Because the ground is a flat, gently graded sandplain, heavy rain sheds slowly rather than draining fast So the lower points of the suburb can pond well before that water finally soaks away.

Good questions, straight answers

Chifley questions, answered

Our house near Mitchell Street has always had brownish water at the tap. Worth investigating?

Definitely, that colouring is the classic sign of galvanised supply pipe corroding internally, common in the suburb's original 1950s and 60s brick homes, and it usually only gets worse without replacement.

The big backyard on our block near Macquarie Street has some mature trees. Could that be behind our slow drain?

Very possibly, established gardens on the older, generous Chifley blocks regularly send roots into ageing clay sewer joints, and a camera pass down the line usually confirms it within the visit.

Is a knockdown-rebuild near Chifley Sports Reserve the kind of job where plumbing gets fully replaced anyway?

Generally, yes, a full rebuild on one of the suburb's older blocks is usually the moment ageing galvanised and clay pipework gets replaced wall to wall rather than patched piece by piece.

Does the flat, sandy ground here actually change how drains cope with a heavy storm?

It does, Chifley's sandplain sheds water slowly, so a hard downpour can pond at the suburb's lower points before that water eventually works its way down through the deep sand beneath.
