More Than Just Looking—We Find Solutions

Your sewer camera inspection includes a thorough evaluation of your entire sewer system from your home’s foundation to the street connection. We check for blockages, cracks, root intrusion, pipe misalignment, and signs of deterioration. In Pollock Pines, we’re especially careful to look for issues common to mountain homes: pipe damage from ground shifting, problems caused by temperature extremes, and issues specific to older home plumbing systems that many properties in our area still have. You’ll receive a copy of the video inspection for your records, plus a written report detailing our findings. If we discover problems, we provide clear explanations of what needs to be addressed immediately versus what can wait, helping you prioritize repairs based on your budget and timeline.

How much does a sewer camera inspection cost in Pollock Pines?

Our sewer camera inspections typically range from $250 to $400, depending on the length and complexity of your sewer system. Most homes in Pollock Pines fall within the standard range because of typical pipe lengths and accessibility. We provide upfront pricing before we start any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges added after the inspection. If we find additional problems that require immediate attention, we’ll discuss options and costs with you before proceeding with any extra work. The investment is worthwhile when you consider that a $300 inspection can identify problems that might cost $10,000 or more to repair if left undetected.

What problems can a sewer camera inspection find in mountain homes?

In Pollock Pines, we commonly find issues specific to mountain living: pipe damage from ground shifting due to freeze-thaw cycles, blockages made worse by cold temperatures, and problems with older pipe materials that many mountain homes still have. Tree root intrusion is especially common here because roots search for water sources and sewer lines provide that. We also frequently find mineral buildup from hard water, grease clogs that solidify more easily in cold weather, and pipe separations caused by ground movement. The camera inspection shows us exactly where these problems are located and how extensive they are, so we can recommend the most cost-effective repair approach rather than guessing or doing unnecessary work.

How often should I have my sewer line inspected in Pollock Pines?

For most homes in Pollock Pines, we recommend sewer camera inspections every 18 to 24 months. Mountain conditions can be harder on plumbing systems than valley locations, so regular monitoring helps catch problems early. If your home is older than 20 years, has large trees nearby, or you’ve had previous sewer issues, annual inspections make more sense. The seasonal temperature swings and ground movement common in our area can accelerate pipe deterioration. Properties with well water systems or septic connections may need more frequent inspections because of different usage patterns and potential complications from those systems.

Can you do sewer camera inspections during winter in Pollock Pines?

Yes, we perform sewer camera inspections year-round in Pollock Pines. Our equipment is designed to work in cold conditions, and the inspection process itself isn’t affected by outside temperatures. Winter inspections can actually be valuable because that’s when many sewer problems become apparent—frozen ground can shift pipes, and increased indoor water usage during cold months can reveal capacity issues or slow drains. We do recommend addressing any problems we find promptly during winter months, since frozen ground can make some repairs more challenging and expensive if you wait until spring.

What happens if you find problems during the sewer camera inspection?

When we find problems, we stop the inspection to explain what you’re seeing on the video screen. We’ll show you exactly where the issue is located and help you understand how serious it is—whether it needs immediate attention or can be scheduled for later. You’ll get a written report with our findings and recommended solutions. We provide upfront pricing for any repairs, and we never pressure you to authorize work on the spot. Take time to consider your options and get additional quotes if you want. If the problem requires immediate attention—like a major blockage or pipe collapse—we’ll explain why it can’t wait and what might happen if it’s not addressed quickly. But the decision is always yours.

Do you guarantee your sewer camera inspection results?

We guarantee that our inspection will accurately identify any visible problems in your sewer line. Our high-definition cameras and experienced technicians ensure we don’t miss issues that could cause problems later. If we tell you your sewer line is clear and you experience problems within 30 days that should have been visible during our inspection, we’ll return to re-inspect at no charge and address any oversight on our part. However, sewer systems are dynamic—new problems can develop after an inspection due to ground movement, new root growth, or other factors beyond our control. That’s why we recommend regular inspections rather than one-time checks.
