Our sewer scope inspection uses high-resolution cameras to evaluate your entire sewer line. This service identifies issues like root intrusion, pipe fractures, and blockages while providing real-time video documentation. Technicians deliver comprehensive reports detailing pipe condition and recommended actions.
Video Analysis
Every inspection includes detailed video analysis showing pipe interior conditions. Our technicians explain findings clearly, highlighting problem areas like erosion, constriction, or foreign objects. The video serves as permanent documentation for future reference or contractor consultations.

We specialize in identifying root intrusion issues affecting 80% of inspected lines. Our assessment determines intrusion severity and recommends treatment options. Technicians explain how root growth impacts pipe integrity and maintenance requirements.
Pipe Type Identification
Our service identifies pipe materials including vitrified clay, concrete, and Orangeburg. Technicians explain material-specific vulnerabilities and lifespan expectations. This information helps homeowners understand maintenance needs and replacement timelines.

We help locate existing cleanouts or access pipes when none are available. Technicians may access lines through toilets or roof vents when necessary. This service includes reinstallation with fresh seals when toilet removal is required.
