What Sewer Camera Inspections Are And Why They Help
A sewer camera inspection is a no‑dig evaluation of your main drain and lateral using a flexible, waterproof camera. We feed the camera through a cleanout or toilet opening and record HD color video as it travels through your pipe. This makes hidden issues visible and helps you avoid unnecessary excavation.
- Find the real cause of backups such as tree roots, grease, scale, bellies, offsets, or breaks
- Verify if cleaning solved the problem before you close walls or restore landscaping
- Document pipe condition for home purchases, insurance discussions, or future planning
- Locate and mark the line to plan cost‑effective repairs
Sewer Camera Inspections For Home Buyers And Sellers
Most general home inspections do not include a sewer scope. A quick camera inspection can reveal expensive issues before closing and give both sides peace of mind. Sellers can show proof their line is in good shape. Buyers can plan ahead if defects are discovered. Ask us about sharing a link to the video for your records.
How Our Sewer Camera Process Works
- Arrival And Protection We confirm access, protect floors, and choose the best entry point. Exterior cleanouts are ideal. If needed, we can pull and reset a toilet.
- HD Video Scope The camera travels through your main drain and sewer lateral while we record and narrate what we see.
- Locate And Mark When helpful, we use a transmitter and locator to mark the line path and estimated depth in your yard for repair planning.
- Findings And Options We review the footage with you on site and explain practical options such as cleaning, monitoring, or repair.
- Shareable Deliverables You receive the video link and notes so you can keep, share, or compare quotes later.
For business properties and multi‑tenant buildings, our team can coordinate off‑hours access and documentation. Learn more about services for local businesses on our commercial page.
What We Often See In Wisconsin Rapids Homes
Homes in and around Wisconsin Rapids, Port Edwards, Nekoosa, Biron, Grand Rapids, and nearby communities experience a mix of pipe materials and soil conditions. Freeze‑thaw cycles, shifting soils, and large maple and oak roots can create offsets, tiny cracks, or bellies that collect debris. Many older houses still have sections of clay tile or cast iron that scale up over time. A camera inspection helps you distinguish a simple cleaning need from a repair issue so you spend wisely.
Benefits You Can Count On
- Clear, HD footage you can watch live and keep for your records
- Pinpointed locations and depth marks to avoid guesswork
- Actionable next steps explained in plain language
- No‑dig diagnosis that protects landscaping and finishes
- Fits real estate timelines with fast turnaround
We provide HD video and a shareable link so you can make confident decisions without pressure.
When To Schedule A Sewer Camera Inspection
Consider a scope when you have repeated clogs or slow drains, when buying or selling a home, before and after drain cleaning or jetting, after major tree root removal, or if your home is older and you have never evaluated the sewer line. If you are scheduling seasonal maintenance on comfort systems, you can also coordinate with our team for heating and air conditioning service if water leaks affected equipment spaces.
How To Get Ready For Your Appointment
Clear the area around potential access points, such as a basement cleanout or the base of a toilet. Avoid heavy water use right before the visit so the pipe stays clearer for the camera. If the line is severely blocked, brief cleaning may be recommended first so the camera can see the full path of the pipe.
