Overview

What sewer camera inspection actually means

We run a high-resolution sewer camera through your line to identify cracks, offsets, root intrusion, scale, bellies, channeling, and connection issues. The camera locates the position and depth of any failure on the surface so a repair can be planned with precision.

Camera inspections are essential before any major sewer repair, but they are also the right call before buying a property, when an HOA is planning a phased rehabilitation, or when an apartment building is having repeat backups in the same line.

You get the video and a written summary in plain language — what we saw, where it is, and what we recommend.

Common questions

Common questions about sewer camera inspection

Should I get a sewer camera inspection before buying a property?

Yes, a sewer camera inspection is usually worthwhile during due diligence on older properties or any listing with drainage history. Standard home inspections typically do not include interior sewer-line imaging, so major issues can remain hidden until after close. A pre-purchase inspection gives you footage and written findings you can use for negotiations or repair planning.

What does a sewer camera inspection cost?

Inspection pricing depends on access conditions, line length, and whether surface locating is required. Properties with difficult access or multi-segment runs can require additional time and scope. We provide written pricing before scheduling so you know the exact cost for your property.

What does 'trenchless sewer repair' actually mean?

Trenchless sewer repair means rehabilitating or replacing a sewer line through compact access points instead of long open trenches. The right method depends on what the camera shows, usually CIPP lining, spot repair, or pipe bursting. The next step is a CCTV inspection so you can compare written options before any work starts.
