The Problem

Is this happening to you?

You suspect a pipe problem but you do not know where it is or how bad. Maybe drains keep backing up. Maybe you are buying a house and want to know what is in the ground. Digging or repiping without a diagnosis is how people waste thousands of dollars. A camera shows you the real condition of the line, not a guess.

Our Process

How we handle it

  1. Access the line

    We go in through a cleanout, vent stack, or toilet pull, whichever makes sense for your setup.

  2. Run the camera

    High-resolution head, self-leveling, real-time feed on the monitor. You watch with us.

  3. Identify issues

    Cracks, roots, offsets, bellies, grease, collapses, and bad joints. We call out what we see as we see it.

  4. Locate on the surface

    The camera transmits a signal. We mark exactly where on your property the problem is and how deep.

  5. Record footage

    You get a copy of the video. Useful for quotes, insurance, and real estate transactions.

  6. Recommend the right fix

    Spot repair, cleanout, jetting, or full replacement. Decisions based on video, not guesses.

  • Camera before cutting
    We do not trench a yard based on a hunch. We cut after we have seen the pipe.
  • We show you the screen
    No mysterious verdict from behind a truck door. You see what we see, in real time.
  • Experience reading pipe
    45 years of cast iron, clay, Orangeburg, PVC, and transitions between them. We know what we are looking at.
  • Honest verdict
    If your line is fine, we tell you. Not every wet spot in a yard is a broken sewer.

Questions, Answered

Frequently asked questions

What can a camera inspection show me?
Cracks, offsets, bellies where water pools, root intrusion, grease buildup, collapsed pipe, corrosion on cast iron, and connections that were never done right. You see it on the screen with us.
How much does a camera inspection cost?
Flat-rate. We often apply the inspection fee toward the repair if you move forward with us. You get the number up front.
Should I get a camera inspection before buying a house?
Absolutely, especially for homes built before 1980 or on properties with mature trees. A $300 inspection can save you from a $10,000 surprise after closing.
Do you give me the video?
Yes. We can send you the footage so you have documentation, whether that is for insurance, a seller negotiation, or your own records.
How deep can the camera go?
We can run the camera the full length of a typical residential lateral and most mainline runs. If the line is collapsed, the camera stops there, which tells us exactly where the problem is.
Can you find a lost cleanout or pipe route?
Yes. The camera head transmits a signal we locate from the surface, so we can mark the exact path and depth of the line in your yard.
