Sewer Camera Inspection Services in Utah
A sewer camera inspection is a non-invasive way to see inside your drain and sewer lines in real time. We insert a small, flexible camera on a cable into the pipe and feed it through the line. The camera sends back live video so we can identify blockages, cracks, root intrusion, corrosion, buildup, and other issues without any excavation or guesswork.
We carry two camera sizes so we can inspect pipes of different diameters, from smaller branch lines to full main and sewer lines. If we find something wrong, we document it with photos and video so you have a clear record of the issue and can make informed decisions about repairs.
When You Need a Camera Inspection
A camera inspection takes the guesswork out of drain and sewer problems. Here are the most common situations where it makes sense:
- Recurring clogs that won't stay clear. If the same drain keeps backing up after cleaning, there's usually a deeper issue. A camera shows us whether it's buildup, root intrusion, a damaged section of pipe, or something else.
- Before buying or selling a home. A sewer scope inspection is one of the smartest things you can do before closing on a property. It reveals hidden problems like cracked pipes, root damage, or deteriorating lines that could cost thousands to repair after you move in.
- After hydro jetting or drain cleaning. We run a camera through the line after cleaning to confirm everything is flowing, check for any pipe damage, and spot any remaining or potential issues so we can address them before they get worse.
- Sewer odors inside your home or around your yard. Bad smells often point to a crack, break, or blockage in the sewer line. A camera inspection pinpoints the exact location and cause.
- Slow drains with no obvious cause. When plunging and snaking don't solve the problem, the issue is usually further down the line. A camera lets us find it without tearing anything apart.
- Before major plumbing or remodeling work. If you're planning a renovation or addition, it's worth checking the condition of your existing drain and sewer lines first to avoid surprises mid-project.
What We Look For
A camera inspection isn’t just about finding a clog. We evaluate the overall condition of your drain and sewer system. Here’s what we check for:
- Blockages and buildup. Grease, debris, mineral scale, and other material that's restricting flow or causing backups.
- Tree root intrusion. Roots that have entered the pipe through cracks or joints and are growing inside the line.
- Cracks, breaks, and pipe damage. Structural issues that could lead to leaks, collapses, or sewage backups if left unaddressed.
- Corrosion and deterioration. Signs of aging pipe material that may need repair or replacement in the near future.
- Bellied or sagging pipe sections. Low spots in the line where water and debris collect instead of flowing through.
- Offset joints or misaligned connections. Sections where pipes have shifted and no longer line up properly, creating catch points for debris.
