Camera and Video Inspection

If it’s a one-time clog, clearing the drain may be all that’s needed. But if the same drain keeps backing up, there’s usually a reason. A camera inspection lets us look for things like tree roots, heavy buildup, cracks, or a damaged section of pipe. Instead of clearing the same clog over and over, we can find out why it keeps happening and recommend a solution that addresses the actual problem.

Not at all, and that’s one of the biggest advantages. The camera can usually be inserted through an existing cleanout or drain opening, so there’s no need to start digging up your yard just to see what’s happening underground. If the inspection does uncover damage that requires excavation, we’ll know where the problem is before that work begins.

A camera gives us a clear look at what’s happening inside the pipe, so it’s great for finding blockages, cracks, root intrusion, and other visible damage. That said, not every plumbing problem happens inside the drain line. If we suspect something like a pump, venting, or another part of the plumbing system is causing the issue, we’ll look beyond the camera inspection to figure out what’s going on.
