Non-Destructive Investigation
Inspect underground assets without excavation.
Large-Diameter & Long Pipelines
Our cameras travel long distances through wide systems.
Footage & Documentation
Perfect for reporting, maintenance, or insurance records.
Precise Defect Location
Identify cracks, root intrusion, or blockages with exact depth and position.
What Exactly Is a Wincan Report?
When accuracy is non-negotiable, a standard drain camera isn’t enough.
Think of a Wincan report as a structural health certificate for your underground assets. It is the industry’s “gold standard” digital assessment—a coded, forensic breakdown of a pipe’s condition.
Using high-spec crawler cameras, we document everything happening beneath the surface:
- Structural Integrity: Cracks, fractures, and full collapses.
- Serviceability Issues: Root intrusions, joint separations, and blockages.
- Engineering Data: Precise diameter, material types, and “to-the-centimeter” chainage.
Every defect is classified and coded via Wincan software, producing a structured, professional PDF that is ready for council submission or engineering review.
Tractor Crawlers vs. Push-Cameras
The Advantage of a tractor crawler
Most plumbers carry a push-rod camera. For small domestic jobs, they’re fine. For infrastructure, they don’t cut it.
We use high-resolution tractor crawler systems designed for larger diameter pipelines. Unlike push-cameras, our crawlers offer:
- Massive Reach: We travel long distances through main lines without losing stability.
- Rock-Solid Footage: Steady, high-definition video that makes defects impossible to miss.
- Accurate Chainage: Precision distance tracking so you know exactly where to dig (if you have to).
- Defensible Data: Our footage stands up to engineering scrutiny and compliance audits.

From Site to Sign-Off: Our Process
We start with a thorough site assessment to ensure the right crawler rig is deployed for your pipe’s specific diameter and access points. Our team then captures high-definition footage while coding defects in real-time using Wincan software. The process wraps up with the fast delivery of a complete digital package—including video, defect logs, and severity grading—giving you the compliant documentation you need to move your project forward.
CCTV Inspections FAQs
What pipe sizes can you handle?
Our crawler systems are built for larger-diameter sewer and stormwater lines. If you have a specific pipe size in mind, give us a call and we’ll confirm the best rig for the job.
How soon will I get my report?
We pride ourselves on speed. While standard turnaround is fast, we can offer priority reporting for time-critical projects.
Are your reports council compliant?
Absolutely. We use industry-standard Wincan defect coding, meaning your report is ready for submission to councils and water authorities the moment it hits your inbox.
Do the pipes need to be cleaned before the inspection?
How is the data actually delivered?
We’ve moved past the era of losing USB sticks on-site. You’ll receive a secure digital download link containing the full Wincan project, high-res video files, and the PDF report. This makes it easy to forward the entire package to council reviewers or project engineers instantly.
Can Wincan data be integrated into my existing asset management system?
Yes. One of the biggest perks of Wincan is that its data is exportable in formats (like XML or Access) that plug directly into GIS and asset management software used by many Sydney councils and utility providers. It’s built for long-term data tracking, not just a one-off look.
