How Drain-Radar™ Works

Our DrainRadar system works hand-in-hand with our DrainSight camera technology. Here’s how:

Camera Insertion:

We feed a specialized camera line into your drain or sewer. The camera includes a built-in sonde (signal transmitter).

Signal Tracking:

Above ground, our technician uses a precision receiver to detect the signal from the camera head as it moves through the pipe.

Mapping & Marking:

We track and mark the exact path of the drain or sewer line on the surface—showing turns, junctions, and depths.

Problem Pinpointing:

If we detect breaks, blockages, or sags, we’ll mark those spots too—so when excavation or repairs begin, they’re targeted and minimal.

This process eliminates the guesswork that leads to wasted time, torn-up lawns, or extra costs.

Common Situations Where Drain-Radar™ Saves Time and Money

🏠 Home Renovations & Additions

Planning to add a bathroom, garage, or basement suite? Knowing where your sewer and drain lines run prevents accidental damage and ensures your new plumbing ties in properly.

🧱 Before Digging or Landscaping

Whether you’re building a deck, pouring a new driveway, or installing trees and fencing, DrainRadar helps you avoid hitting buried sewer lines.

💧 Recurring Drain Problems

If the same drain keeps clogging, it could be due to a low spot, offset joint, or partial collapse. DrainRadar can pinpoint the issue—so you repair only what’s needed.

🏢 Commercial Properties & Property Managers

DrainRadar is ideal for larger facilities in Saskatoon—shopping centers, apartment buildings, and restaurants—where multiple drain lines run underground. Accurate mapping means fewer disruptions and better maintenance planning.
