Sewer Camera Inspection

When a line keeps backing up, guessing gets expensive. Rafael runs a waterproof camera through the sewer line and watches it on a screen as it goes, so the problem gets found instead of guessed at. You see what he sees: roots, cracks, breaks, sagging sections, grease, and anything else sitting in the pipe.

What the camera finds

  • Tree roots that have worked into the pipe through the joints

  • Cracked, broken, or collapsed sections

  • Low spots where the pipe has sagged and waste collects

  • Grease and buildup coating the walls of the pipe

  • Objects that were flushed and never made it out

  • Exactly where the problem sits in the yard, and how deep

When a camera inspection makes sense

  • The same line has backed up more than once

  • Sewage has come up in a basement or the lowest drain in the building

  • A cleaning opened the line, but nobody knows why it clogged

  • Before money goes into a repair or a replacement, so the digging happens in the right spot

What happens after

If the line is just dirty, it gets cleaned and that is the end of it. If the pipe is broken, the camera footage and the locator mark the spot, so the repair digs where the problem actually is instead of opening up the whole yard. Either way, you get a straight answer about what is underground before you decide anything.

Questions people ask

Do you have to dig to run the camera?

No. The camera goes in through a cleanout or an opening in the line. No digging unless a repair follows, and by then the camera has already shown where to dig.

Can I see what the camera sees?

Yes. The picture shows on a screen while the camera is in the line, and Rafael talks through what is on it.

My drain was already cleaned. Do I still need a camera?

If it was a one time clog, probably not. If the same line keeps backing up, the camera is how you find out why instead of clearing the same clog over and over.

How long does an inspection take?

Most take under an hour once the camera is in the line. If the line is fully blocked, it may need to be opened first so the camera can get through.
