Video Camera Inspection Process

Simple Process, Clear Answers

We start by locating your main sewer cleanout—usually found near your home’s foundation or in the yard. Our waterproof camera gets inserted into the line and travels through your entire sewer system, recording everything it encounters.

You’ll watch the inspection happen in real-time on our monitor. We’ll point out any issues, explain what you’re seeing, and answer your questions as we go. The camera shows us cracks, blockages, root intrusion, pipe deterioration, and connection problems.

After the inspection, you receive a detailed report with timestamps, photos, and our recommendations. If we find problems, we’ll explain your options and help you prioritize repairs based on urgency and budget. If your lines are clear, you’ll have peace of mind and documentation to prove it.

Complete Sewer Line Inspection Services

What You Get With Every Inspection

Every sewer inspection includes a complete video recording of your main sewer line from your home to the street connection. We inspect branch lines when accessible and document any issues we discover along the way.

You’ll receive a written report with photos, video footage, and our professional assessment. We identify the exact location of any problems using our locating equipment, so if repairs are needed, there’s no guesswork about where to dig.

Brandon’s clay soil and mature trees create specific challenges for sewer systems. We know what to look for in our local conditions—from root intrusion patterns to settlement issues that affect older neighborhoods. Our inspection covers these regional concerns and helps you understand how your property’s unique situation affects your sewer system’s health.

How long does a sewer camera inspection take?

Most residential sewer inspections take 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the length of your sewer line and what we find. If your system is clear and straightforward, we’ll be done quickly. If we discover issues that need closer examination or if we need to navigate around significant blockages, it might take a bit longer. We don’t rush the process because missing something important defeats the purpose of the inspection. You’ll know upfront if we expect any delays, and we’ll keep you informed throughout the process.

What problems can a sewer camera inspection find?

Our cameras identify virtually any issue affecting your sewer line’s function. We regularly find tree root intrusion, pipe cracks and breaks, collapsed sections, grease buildup, foreign objects, and connection problems where pipes join together. The camera also reveals pipe material deterioration, bellied sections where pipes have settled, and offset joints. In Brandon’s soil conditions, we often see issues related to ground settling and root systems from mature trees. The inspection shows us both current problems causing symptoms and potential issues that could become expensive emergencies if left unaddressed.

Do I need a sewer inspection when buying a home?

Yes, especially in Brandon where many homes have mature landscaping and older sewer systems. A sewer inspection protects you from inheriting expensive problems that aren’t visible during a standard home inspection. Sewer line repairs can cost thousands of dollars, and problems often don’t show symptoms until they’re severe. The inspection gives you negotiating power if issues are found and peace of mind if the system is clear. Many real estate transactions now include sewer inspections as standard practice, and some lenders require them for certain properties or loan types.

Will the camera inspection damage my pipes or landscaping?

No, our camera inspection is completely non-invasive. The camera is designed specifically for sewer lines and won’t damage your pipes. We access your system through existing cleanouts, so there’s no digging or disruption to your landscaping. The camera is smaller than the pipe diameter and moves smoothly through the system. If your pipes are so damaged that a camera could cause problems, they’re already in critical condition and need immediate attention anyway. The inspection process is gentler on your system than normal daily use, and we take care to protect your property throughout the process.

How much does a sewer camera inspection cost?

Sewer inspection pricing varies based on your system’s complexity and length, but most residential inspections in Brandon range from reasonable diagnostic fees to comprehensive inspection packages. The cost is minimal compared to the thousands you could spend on unnecessary repairs or emergency situations. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, and many customers find the inspection pays for itself by preventing costly mistakes or emergency calls. If you need repairs after the inspection, we often credit the inspection fee toward the work, making the diagnostic process essentially free when you choose us for the solution.

How often should I have my sewer line inspected?

For most Brandon homes, we recommend sewer inspections every 3-5 years as preventive maintenance, or immediately if you’re experiencing symptoms like slow drains, gurgling sounds, or sewage odors. Homes with mature trees should consider more frequent inspections since root intrusion is ongoing. If you’ve had previous sewer problems or live in an older home with original clay or cast iron pipes, annual inspections help catch issues early. Properties with heavy usage or commercial applications may need more frequent monitoring. The key is catching problems before they become emergencies—it’s much cheaper to address issues proactively than to deal with sewage backups and emergency repairs.
