Symptoms & Diagnosis

What does a sewer camera inspection actually show?

Quick Answer

A camera inspection sends a high-definition camera through your entire drain system and records the real condition of every pipe, joint, and connection. It shows corrosion, buildup, cracks, offsets, and blockages exactly where they are, so any repair recommendation is based on evidence you can watch yourself.

What happens during the inspection

A certified inspector feeds an HD push camera through your drain lines using existing access points like cleanouts. A locator on the camera head lets us map exactly where the pipe runs and how deep it sits, so problems are tied to real locations under your home, not guesses. The condition of the system is documented following nationally defined inspection protocols, the same standards used across the industry.

Most residential inspections take about an hour. Nothing is dug up, nothing is cut open, and you are welcome to watch the screen with us while it happens.

What you walk away with

You get copies of every video, an honest explanation of what we found, and, only if the pipes actually need work, a written proposal with measured footage and one all-inclusive price. If the camera shows sound pipe, we say so. The footage is yours either way, and there is no charge and no obligation.

The Homeowner Takeaway

The camera replaces opinions with evidence. You see what we see, you keep the footage, and any recommendation has to answer to what is on the screen.
