How the Right Solution Is Chosen
A camera sees condition
It shows the interior of the line, but standing water or a complete blockage may need clearing first.
Use the footage
Findings help distinguish routine cleaning from spot repair, monitoring, or full replacement.
Direct Answers
Sewer Camera Inspection FAQ
When is a sewer camera useful?
It is especially helpful for recurring backups, multiple slow drains, suspected roots, property purchases, and confirming the condition of a cleaned line.
Can a camera find the exact depth?
A compatible locating transmitter can help mark important findings from above ground and estimate their location and depth.
Does a camera inspection clear a clog?
No. It diagnoses the line. Cable cleaning or hydro jetting may be recommended when material needs to be removed.
