Video Camera Inspection Process

Simple Process, Clear Results Every Time

The inspection starts with inserting a waterproof camera attached to a flexible cable into your drain or sewer line. This camera travels through your pipes, recording everything it encounters along the way.

You watch the live feed as the camera moves through your system. When it finds blockages, breaks, or buildup, you see exactly what’s causing your drainage problems and where it’s located.

The camera records the entire inspection, so you have video evidence of any issues. This footage helps plan repairs, shows you the severity of problems, and gives you documentation for insurance claims if needed. Most inspections take 30-60 minutes depending on your system’s complexity.

Complete Sewer Line Inspection

Everything You Need to Know About Your Pipes

Your sewer inspection includes a thorough examination of your entire drain and sewer system from multiple access points. The camera checks main sewer lines, branch lines, and connections to identify any problems affecting your plumbing.

You receive a detailed explanation of findings during the inspection, plus recommendations for addressing any issues discovered. If repairs are needed, you’ll know exactly what work is required and why.

The service also includes locating your sewer lines if needed for future maintenance or repairs. Many Richland homeowners don’t know where their lines run until they need work done, and this information saves time and money later.

Sewer camera inspection costs in Richland typically range from $200-400 depending on your system’s complexity and accessibility. The investment pays for itself by preventing unnecessary repairs and identifying problems before they become emergencies. Many homeowners save hundreds or thousands by getting accurate diagnosis instead of letting plumbers guess at solutions. If you need repairs after the inspection, we apply the inspection fee toward the work, making the diagnostic essentially free when you move forward with necessary fixes.
Camera inspections identify tree root intrusion, broken or cracked pipes, grease buildup, foreign objects, pipe corrosion, and improper installation issues. The camera also reveals pipe material types, joint problems, and structural damage from ground shifting. In Richland’s climate, root intrusion and older pipe deterioration are common findings. The inspection shows exactly where problems are located, how severe they are, and whether they’re getting worse over time. This information helps you prioritize repairs and avoid emergency situations.
Minimal preparation is needed for most sewer camera inspections. Clear access to your main cleanout or drain openings, and avoid using water for about an hour before the appointment if possible. We will locate the best access point for your system, which might be through a toilet, floor drain, or exterior cleanout. You don’t need to dig up your yard or move major appliances. The process is designed to be non-invasive and work with your existing plumbing access points.
Most residential sewer camera inspections take 30-90 minutes depending on your home’s plumbing layout and the length of lines being inspected. Simple systems with easy access finish faster, while complex layouts or multiple problem areas take longer to thoroughly examine. We explain findings as we go, so you understand what you’re seeing on the camera feed. If problems are found, additional time may be needed to document issues and discuss repair options, but the actual camera work is typically completed within an hour.
Professional sewer cameras are designed specifically for pipe inspection and won’t damage properly installed plumbing. The cameras are smaller than most blockages that already pass through your pipes, and the flexible cables navigate bends and joints safely. However, if your pipes are severely deteriorated or have major structural problems, the inspection might reveal existing damage that was already present. The camera doesn’t cause damage, but it may discover pipes that are already compromised and need attention before they fail completely.
Modern sewer cameras work effectively in most residential pipe materials including PVC, cast iron, clay, concrete, and ABS pipes. The cameras navigate pipes from 2 inches to over 12 inches in diameter, covering virtually all residential applications. However, severely collapsed pipes or completely blocked lines may prevent camera access to certain areas. In these cases, the camera identifies the location and nature of the obstruction, which still provides valuable information for planning repairs. The inspection works best when there’s at least partial water flow through the system.
