You might need a camera inspection for your drains if you’re experiencing any of the following:

  • Frequent clogs: If your drains are getting clogged repeatedly, even after using a plunger or drain cleaner, a camera inspection can help identify the underlying cause.
  • Slow drainage: If water is draining slowly from multiple fixtures, it could be a sign of a blockage or damage in the main sewer line.
  • Foul odors: Persistent bad smells coming from your drains could indicate a problem further down the line, like a buildup of debris or a broken pipe.
  • Gurgling sounds: Gurgling noises from your drains can be a sign of air trapped due to a blockage or a venting issue.
  • Sewage backup: If you experience sewage backing up into your home, it’s a clear indication of a serious problem in the sewer line that requires immediate attention.
  • Unexplained wet spots in your yard: These could be caused by a leaking or damaged sewer line.
  • Buying or selling a home: A camera inspection is often recommended during a home inspection to identify any potential issues with the plumbing system before buying or selling a property.

A camera inspection is a minimally invasive way to diagnose problems deep within your plumbing system. It can pinpoint the exact location and nature of the issue, allowing for more targeted and efficient repairs.
