What Is a Sewer Camera Inspection?
A sewer camera inspection is a modern plumbing technique that allows professionals to look inside your underground pipes using a high-resolution waterproof camera. This non-invasive method reveals hidden issues like blockages, cracks, root intrusions, or corrosion—without digging or guessing.
By sending a flexible camera line through your sewer system, we get a live video feed of your pipes’ condition in real-time, helping you avoid unnecessary repairs and make smarter plumbing decisions.
