Sewer Camera Inspection Process McClellan Park

Here's Exactly What Happens

We start by locating the best access point—usually a cleanout or drain opening. No need to remove toilets or dig up your yard for a standard inspection. Our waterproof camera travels through your sewer line on a flexible cable, sending live video to our monitor. You can watch along as we navigate through your pipes, pointing out any issues we find. The camera captures high-definition footage of blockages, cracks, root intrusion, pipe corrosion, or collapsed sections. We’ll show you exactly where problems are located and explain what you’re seeing. After the inspection, you get a clear explanation of our findings and specific recommendations for repairs. No vague “you might need this” suggestions—just honest assessment based on what the camera revealed.

Sewer Line Video Inspection McClellan Park

What Your Inspection Includes

Every sewer camera inspection includes real-time video of your entire accessible sewer line, from your home to the main connection. We look for blockages, root intrusion, pipe damage, improper slopes, and connection issues. You’ll receive a detailed explanation of any problems we find, including their exact location and severity. We use locating equipment to pinpoint issues without excavation, so repairs can be targeted and efficient. McClellan Park’s older infrastructure means tree roots are a common culprit in sewer line problems. Our cameras easily identify root intrusion and show whether it’s a minor issue or something requiring immediate attention. We also spot the pipe bellies and joint separations that are typical in this area’s aging systems. For home buyers, our inspection provides crucial information about a property’s sewer condition—potentially saving thousands in unexpected repairs or giving you negotiating power if issues are found.

How much does a sewer camera inspection cost in McClellan Park?

Sewer camera inspection costs typically range from $150 to $400 depending on the complexity and length of your sewer line. At Murray Plumbing, we provide upfront pricing before starting any work—no surprise charges or hidden fees. The investment is minimal compared to the potential cost of undetected sewer problems. A collapsed pipe or major root intrusion can cost $6,000 to $30,000 to repair, making a camera inspection one of the smartest preventive measures you can take. We also offer emergency inspection services when you’re dealing with backups or suspected line damage that needs immediate attention.

What can a sewer camera inspection detect in my pipes?

Our cameras detect virtually any issue inside your sewer line: tree root intrusion, pipe cracks, collapsed sections, blockages, grease buildup, pipe bellies, joint separations, and corrosion. We can also identify foreign objects, improper connections, and structural damage from ground settling. The high-definition video shows the exact condition of your pipe walls, any debris accumulation, and the severity of problems. We can differentiate between a simple clog that needs snaking and a structural issue requiring pipe repair or replacement. For McClellan Park homes, we commonly find tree root problems and joint issues related to the area’s older infrastructure. The camera inspection tells us whether roots are just starting to penetrate or have completely taken over sections of pipe.

How long does a sewer camera inspection take?

Most residential sewer camera inspections take 30 minutes to an hour, depending on your sewer line’s length and complexity. If we encounter blockages that prevent the camera from completing the full inspection, we’ll let you know immediately. The process is efficient because we’re not digging or dismantling plumbing fixtures. We access your sewer line through existing cleanouts or drain openings, run the camera, and provide immediate results. Emergency inspections can often be completed the same day you call, especially for urgent situations involving backups or suspected line damage. We understand that sewer problems don’t wait for convenient timing.

Do I need a sewer camera inspection before buying a home?

Absolutely. Standard home inspections don’t include sewer line evaluation, leaving you vulnerable to inheriting expensive problems. A collapsed sewer line or major root intrusion can cost more than many people’s down payment to repair. The inspection gives you negotiating power if problems are found, or peace of mind if the sewer system is in good condition. Many McClellan Park homes have older sewer lines that may look fine from the surface but have significant underground issues. We’ve helped many home buyers avoid disaster by detecting problems during the inspection period. It’s much better to know about sewer issues before you own them rather than discovering them during your first major backup.

Can tree roots really damage my sewer line?

Tree roots are one of the most common and destructive sewer line problems in McClellan Park. Roots naturally seek water sources, and even small cracks in sewer pipes provide the moisture they need to grow. Once roots penetrate your sewer line, they expand and create larger openings, allowing more roots to enter. Eventually, they can completely block the pipe or cause sections to collapse under the root pressure. Our camera inspection shows the extent of root intrusion and helps determine whether the problem can be cleared with root cutting or requires pipe repair. Early detection often means the difference between a manageable cleaning and a major excavation project.

What happens if the camera finds problems in my sewer line?

We’ll show you exactly what we found and explain your options for addressing the issues. Minor problems like small blockages or early root intrusion can often be resolved with cleaning or root cutting. More serious issues may require targeted repairs or pipe replacement. You’ll receive honest recommendations based on the severity of problems and your budget considerations. We’re not in the business of overselling—if a simple fix will solve your problem, that’s what we’ll recommend. For major issues, we can provide detailed repair estimates and explain both traditional and trenchless repair options. The camera inspection helps us plan the most efficient repair approach, often saving you money compared to exploratory digging.
