When You Need a Sewer Camera Inspection

A camera inspection is one of the most useful diagnostic tools in plumbing. It’s often the right call when:

  • You have a drain or sewer line that clogs repeatedly despite being cleared
  • Multiple fixtures back up at the same time
  • You’re buying or selling a home and want to know the true condition of the sewer line
  • Your home has an older clay or cast iron sewer line
  • Mature trees are located near your main sewer line
  • You notice unexplained wet or soggy spots in the yard
  • You’re planning landscaping or hardscape work and need to confirm the exact location of underground pipe first

What Our Sewer Camera Inspection Includes

  • Full line inspection: We run a high-definition camera through the sewer line to visually inspect its condition from end to end.
  • Blockage & root intrusion identification: We can pinpoint exactly where a clog, root intrusion, or buildup is located.
  • Pipe condition assessment: We check for cracks, offset joints, bellies (sagging sections), and other structural issues.
  • Upfront findings: We’ll show you what the camera sees and explain what it means in plain language — no guesswork, no pressure.
  • Recorded footage: Useful documentation for real estate transactions, insurance purposes, or your own records.

Electronic Pipe Locating

In addition to camera inspections, we use electronic pipe locating equipment to pinpoint the exact underground location and depth of a sewer or water line. This is especially useful before landscaping, hardscape, pool installation, or any digging project, helping you avoid accidentally damaging a line you didn’t know was there. It also helps us target repairs precisely, minimizing unnecessary excavation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sewer Camera Inspections

How much does a sewer camera inspection cost in Orange County?

Cost depends on the length of the line and accessibility. We provide upfront pricing before any work begins, and free estimates are available so you know the cost ahead of time.

How long does a sewer camera inspection take?

Most residential inspections take under an hour, though it can vary depending on the length and complexity of the sewer line.

Is a sewer camera inspection useful before buying a home?

Yes. A camera inspection can reveal root intrusion, cracks, offset pipe, or other issues that aren’t visible any other way, giving buyers, sellers, and Realtors a clear picture of the sewer line’s condition before closing.

Does a sewer camera inspection require digging?

No. The camera is fed directly into an existing cleanout or access point, so no digging is required just to inspect the line. Digging is only needed if a repair is identified and necessary.

Can a camera inspection detect tree root intrusion?

Yes. Camera inspections are one of the most reliable ways to confirm whether roots have intruded into a sewer line and pinpoint exactly where.

How often should a main sewer line be inspected?

Homes with older sewer lines, mature trees near the line, or a history of clogs often benefit from periodic inspections. Otherwise, it’s most useful when you’re experiencing recurring drain issues or evaluating a property before purchase.
