Roots, Offset Joints, Belly, Grease, Collapse

The camera shows what cable feel cannot: root intrusion at joints, offset or bellied pipe that holds water, heavy grease cake, or a collapsed section that will never open with a snake alone.

  • Root intrusion
  • Offset joints
  • Belly / low spots
  • Grease buildup
  • Collapsed or broken pipe

Clear, Repair, or Replace — Explained

We walk you through what the video shows and the options: clear the blockage, repair a section, or replace when the line is done. Price and plan before work starts — in your home, not after.

If the line is only clogged, pair the camera with Drain Cleaning — cable or hydro jet to open it. Offers: $299 Sewer Camera and $199 Drain Clearing.

Drain Clearing When It Is Only a Clog

Not every slow drain needs a full camera. One-time kitchen or bath clogs often clear with cable. Start on Drain Cleaning or the Plumbing hub. When the same main keeps coming back, camera first.

Questions We Get on Camera Calls

How Long Does a Sewer Camera Inspection Take?

Most residential main inspections take under an hour once we access the cleanout. We walk you through what the video shows before we leave.

Do I Get to See the Video?

Yes. We show you the line on screen — roots, offset joints, belly, grease, or collapse — and explain clear vs repair vs replace in plain language.

Camera First or Dig First?

Camera first. Guessing and cutting costs more. We inspect the main before anyone digs so the repair plan matches what is actually in the pipe.

When Is Drain Clearing Enough Without a Camera?

When it is a one-time clog and the line opens cleanly with cable or jet. If the same line keeps coming back, or cable will not pass, camera is the honest next step. See Drain Cleaning.

“Called on a Monday about a water heater and they were there the same day. Clean work, fair price, and they explained what they were doing before they did it.”
