What this service solves
A sewer camera inspection is one of the best ways to stop guessing. The camera helps identify whether a backup is caused by roots, cracks, a clog, pipe-material failure, a belly in the line, an offset joint, or another issue. We push the camera through the line, show you what we find, and locate problem spots from the surface when needed.
Camera work is especially useful when a line keeps backing up, when another company recommends excavation, after main-line hydro jetting, before trenchless pipe repair, or when you need documentation of the pipe condition. It helps turn a drain problem into a clear plan instead of a guess.
This page covers general diagnostic sewer camera inspection. If you are buying a home, use the Homebuyer Sewer Camera Inspection page. If a city requires an inflow and infiltration inspection before property transfer, use the INI Inspection page.
