Sewer Camera Inspection

Guessing at a sewer problem means guessing at the cost. We send a video camera through the line to see the actual condition of the pipe, whether it's roots, a crack, a belly or just grease buildup, so any repair we recommend is based on what is really going on underground.

Common Issues

What a Camera Inspection Can Reveal

Root Intrusion

Roots growing into joints and cracks are one of the most common finds in older sewer lines.

Bellied Pipe

A dip in the line caused by shifting soil shows up clearly on camera as standing water.

Cracks and Fractures

Hairline cracks that don't show symptoms yet can be caught before they become a full backup.

Pipe Material and Condition

For older homes, a camera confirms what the sewer line is actually made of and how much life it has left.

Blockages and Debris

Grease, scale and foreign objects show up clearly, helping us pick the right clearing method.

Misaligned Joints

Shifted or separated joints are easy to spot and can be a source of leaks and infiltration.

Prevention

Maintenance Tips to Avoid Bigger Problems

Inspect Before You Buy

A pre-purchase sewer inspection can save you from inheriting someone else's expensive problem.

Recheck After Major Repairs

A follow-up inspection confirms a repair actually solved the problem.

Don't Wait for a Backup

A proactive inspection is far cheaper than an emergency one after sewage backs up into your home.

Keep Your Footage on File

Recorded inspection video is useful documentation for future service calls or home sale disclosures.
