Sewer camera inspection: what you see and when it's worth it

Sewer camera monitor showing the inside of a drain line

A sewer camera shows exactly what's inside your line: roots, grease, cracks, sags, or a clean pipe. Mine reaches over 100 feet and records the footage. I show it to you and tell you what I think is going on.

Need it cleared? That's what my sewer line cleaning and camera inspection is for.

When it's worth it

  • The same backup keeps coming back
  • You think you have roots
  • You're buying a house
  • After a cleaning, to prove the line is clear

What you'll see

Roots coming in at the joints. Grease caked on the pipe walls. A crack, a sag where water sits, or a clean pipe. I walk you through it so you're not just staring at a screen.

Then what

If it's a clog, I clear it. If something is broken and needs digging, I tell you straight and can call contractors I trust. You decide what to do.

Common questions

How far can your camera go?

Over 100 feet.

Can I keep the footage?

Yes. You can get a copy of the video. Most folks just watch it with me on the spot.
