Sewer and drain camera inspection

Sewer & Drain Inspection

Push camera and advanced robotic inspection for residential, commercial, and municipal systems in Cleveland, Ohio.

What Is a Video Drain Inspection?

A sewer line camera inspection works to accurately diagnose the cause of a draining problem and can isolate stubborn clogs in hard to reach and see places. Using a high-resolution waterproof camera attached to a flexible cable, our technicians can visually inspect the interior of your sewer lines and drains in real time.

  • Gurgling sounds from drains or toilets
  • Sewage odors inside or outside your home

Frequently Asked Questions

A sewer camera inspection involves inserting a high-resolution, waterproof video camera into your sewer line or drain. The camera is attached to a flexible cable that navigates through the pipe, sending a live video feed to a monitor. This allows our technicians to visually inspect the interior condition of your pipes and accurately identify problems such as clogs, cracks, root intrusion, and pipe deterioration.

A sewer camera inspection helps identify potential issues before they become costly emergencies. It can reveal tree root intrusion, pipe damage, blockages, and deterioration. Regular inspections are especially important for older homes, properties with large trees near sewer lines, and before purchasing a home to avoid unexpected repair costs.

The cost of a sewer camera inspection varies depending on the scope of work and accessibility of the sewer line. Contact us at 440-290-6055 for a free estimate. We offer competitive pricing and transparent quotes with no hidden fees.

While we can review video from another company, we typically recommend performing our own camera inspection before providing a repair quote. This ensures we have the most accurate and up-to-date information about your sewer line's condition, and allows us to verify the location and severity of any issues.

For residential properties, we recommend a sewer camera inspection every 1-2 years as part of routine maintenance. For commercial properties, inspections every 18-22 months are recommended due to higher usage volumes. More frequent inspections may be necessary if you have older pipes, large trees near your sewer line, or a history of sewer problems.

We strongly recommend including a sewer camera inspection as part of any home inspection when purchasing a property. Standard home inspections typically do not include a thorough evaluation of the sewer line. A camera inspection can reveal hidden issues such as root intrusion, bellied pipes, or deteriorating pipe material that could result in expensive repairs after closing.
