Video Inspection Process Explained

Here's Exactly What Happens During Your Inspection

We start by accessing your sewer line through a cleanout or drain opening. Our high-resolution camera goes into the pipe and travels through your entire sewer system, recording everything it sees. You can watch the inspection happen in real-time on our monitor.

The camera shows us pipe condition, blockage locations, root intrusion, cracks, separations, and any other issues affecting your sewer line. We mark the exact depth and location of problems so if repairs are needed, we know exactly where to work.

After the inspection, you get a detailed report with video footage and still images of any problems we found. We explain what each issue means, how urgent it is, and what your repair options are. No technical jargon – just clear information you can use to make the right decision for your property.

What You Get With Every Inspection

Every sewer camera inspection includes a complete video recording of your entire sewer line from your house to the street connection. We check for common Mississippi issues like root intrusion from oak and magnolia trees, clay pipe deterioration, and settlement problems from our shifting soils.

You receive a comprehensive inspection report with time-stamped video, photographs of problem areas, and a written summary of our findings. We identify the exact location and depth of any issues, so future repairs can be targeted and efficient.

Our inspection covers main sewer lines, branch connections, and can include drain line inspection for specific problem areas in your home. We use professional-grade equipment that can navigate bends, joints, and varying pipe sizes to give you a complete picture of your system’s condition.

How long does a sewer camera inspection take to complete?

Most sewer line inspections take 30-60 minutes, depending on the length of your sewer line and what we find. Simple inspections on shorter lines might be done in 30 minutes, while longer lines or those with multiple issues can take up to an hour. We don’t rush the process because missing something important defeats the purpose of the inspection. You’re welcome to watch the inspection on our monitor, and we’ll explain what we’re seeing as we go through your system.

What problems can video camera inspection actually detect in sewer lines?

Our cameras can identify most common sewer line problems including root intrusion, pipe cracks, collapsed sections, blockages, grease buildup, and separated joints. We can also spot bellied pipes where settling has created low spots that collect debris, as well as corrosion in older metal pipes. The camera shows us pipe material, condition, and any foreign objects that might be causing problems. What we can’t determine from video alone is the structural integrity of pipes that look okay but might be weakened – that sometimes requires additional testing.

Do you provide a recording or report of what you find?

Yes, you get both video footage and a written report of our findings. The video includes time stamps so you can see exactly where problems are located, and we provide still images of significant issues. Our written report explains what we found in plain language, rates the severity of different problems, and suggests repair priorities. This documentation is valuable for insurance claims, home sales, or planning future repairs. You can keep these records for your files and share them with other contractors if you’re getting repair estimates.

Can camera inspection find problems in all types of sewer pipes?

Our cameras work in most residential sewer pipe materials including clay, PVC, cast iron, and ABS plastic. We can inspect pipes from 2 inches up to 12 inches in diameter, which covers virtually all residential applications. However, severely collapsed pipes or those completely blocked with hardened debris might limit how far the camera can travel. In those cases, we’ll get as far as possible and at least identify where the major blockage is located. Very old clay pipes with multiple offsets or sharp bends might also limit camera travel, but we can usually get enough information to diagnose the main problems.

How much does sewer line video inspection cost in Mannsdale?

Sewer camera inspection pricing varies based on the complexity of your system and what access points are available. A standard residential inspection typically runs between $200-400, which is a fraction of what you might spend on unnecessary repairs without knowing what’s actually wrong. The cost often pays for itself by helping you avoid digging in the wrong places or fixing problems that don’t exist. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, and many customers find that having clear documentation of their sewer line condition saves money in the long run.

Should I get my sewer line inspected even if I'm not having problems?

Preventive sewer inspection makes sense in several situations: if you’re buying a home, if your house is over 20 years old and you’ve never had the sewer line checked, or if you have large trees near your sewer line. Many sewer problems develop gradually, and catching them early can save significant money compared to emergency repairs. In Mannsdale’s clay soil conditions, pipes can shift and develop problems even when drains seem to be working fine. An inspection gives you baseline information about your system’s condition and helps you plan for any needed maintenance before problems become emergencies.
