Professional Sewer Line Camera Inspection Roseville

Know Exactly What You're Dealing With

That slow drain isn’t just annoying—it’s trying to tell you something. When you can’t see what’s happening inside your sewer line, you’re stuck making expensive guesses about repairs that might not even fix the real problem. Our sewer camera inspection cuts through the uncertainty. We feed a high-definition camera through your pipes and show you exactly what’s blocking, cracking, or breaking down inside your sewer system. Tree roots choking your line? You’ll see them. Collapsed section from settling? We’ll pinpoint the exact location. Grease buildup creating a dam? The camera reveals it all. You get a clear diagnosis in minutes, not hours of digging and detective work. That means faster repairs, lower costs, and the confidence that comes from knowing you’re fixing the right problem the first time.

Sewer Camera Inspection Process Roseville

Simple Process, Clear Answers

Our sewer camera inspection starts with locating your cleanout access point—usually a capped pipe in your yard or basement. If your home doesn’t have a cleanout, we can access your sewer line through other entry points without damaging your property. We insert a flexible, waterproof camera attached to a long cable into your sewer line. This high-resolution camera travels through your pipes, transmitting real-time video to our monitor. As it moves through the system, we can see blockages, cracks, root intrusion, pipe misalignment, or any structural damage. The entire inspection typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your sewer line’s length and complexity. You can watch the live feed with us, so you see exactly what we’re seeing. We record the inspection for your records and explain what each issue means for your plumbing system. Once we’ve completed the inspection, we provide you with a clear explanation of any problems found and recommend the most cost-effective repair options. No surprises, no guesswork—just honest assessment and transparent pricing before any work begins.

Complete Sewer Line Inspection Roseville

What You Get With Our Inspection

Your sewer camera inspection includes a comprehensive evaluation of your entire sewer line from your home to the main connection. We check for common Roseville-area issues like tree root infiltration—especially problematic with the mature trees throughout established neighborhoods—and the settling problems that affect both older clay pipes and newer installations. Our high-definition cameras capture clear images of pipe interiors, allowing us to identify everything from minor scale buildup to major structural failures. We document the exact location of any problems using our locating equipment, so if repairs are needed, we know precisely where to work without unnecessary digging. You receive a detailed explanation of our findings, including video footage you can keep for your records. This documentation is valuable for insurance claims, real estate transactions, or simply understanding your home’s plumbing system. We also provide written recommendations prioritized by urgency, so you know what needs immediate attention and what can be monitored over time.

How much does a sewer camera inspection cost in Roseville?

Most sewer camera inspections in Roseville range from $200 to $500, depending on your sewer line’s length and accessibility. At Murray Plumbing, we don’t charge inflated “emergency rates” or surprise fees for after-hours service. Our diagnostic fee covers the service call, and if you approve our repair estimate, that fee applies toward the total cost. We provide upfront pricing before any work begins, so you know exactly what you’re paying. Many homeowners find that the inspection cost pays for itself by preventing expensive guesswork and unnecessary repairs.

What problems can a sewer camera inspection find in my Roseville home?

Sewer camera inspections reveal the most common issues affecting Roseville homes: tree root intrusion from mature landscaping, pipe settling from soil movement, and blockages from grease or debris buildup. The camera also detects cracks in aging clay or cast iron pipes, misaligned joints from ground shifting, and corrosion that weakens pipe walls. We frequently find problems that aren’t visible from the surface—like partial pipe collapse, scale buildup restricting flow, or “bellies” where pipes sag and collect debris. These hidden issues often cause recurring drain problems that homeowners struggle with for months before getting a proper diagnosis. Early detection through camera inspection prevents minor issues from becoming major emergencies that could cost thousands in excavation and replacement.

How long does a sewer camera inspection take?

Most sewer camera inspections take 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your sewer line’s length and the complexity of any problems we find. If your home has a standard cleanout access, we can begin immediately. Homes without cleanouts may require additional time to establish safe access through alternative entry points. We work efficiently but thoroughly, ensuring we inspect your entire sewer line from your home to the main connection. You can watch the live video feed during the inspection, and we explain what we’re seeing as we go. The real-time nature means you get answers immediately, not days later after lab analysis or additional appointments. If we discover problems that need immediate attention, we can often begin repairs the same day with your approval.

Will the camera inspection damage my pipes or landscaping?

Sewer camera inspection is completely non-invasive and won’t damage your pipes, landscaping, or property. The flexible camera is designed specifically for navigating sewer lines without causing harm to pipe walls or joints, even in older or fragile systems. We access your sewer line through existing cleanouts or established entry points, eliminating the need for digging or excavation. Your plants, shrubs, trees, and lawn remain completely untouched during the inspection process. This environmental friendliness is one of the major advantages over traditional diagnostic methods that required extensive digging. The camera cable is waterproof and designed to handle the conditions inside sewer lines, so there’s no risk of contamination or damage to your plumbing system. After the inspection, your sewer line functions exactly as it did before—except now you have complete knowledge of its condition.

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

Absolutely. Standard home inspections don’t evaluate the condition of sewer lines, yet sewer problems can cost $6,000 to $30,000 to repair. In Roseville, where many homes feature mature trees and varying soil conditions, sewer line issues are particularly common and expensive to address after purchase. A pre-purchase sewer inspection reveals hidden problems like root intrusion, pipe settling, or structural damage that could become your responsibility immediately after closing. This information gives you negotiating power with sellers and helps you budget for any necessary repairs. The inspection cost is minimal compared to the potential expense of inheriting someone else’s sewer problems. Many Roseville home buyers use sewer inspection findings to negotiate repair credits or price reductions, often recovering the inspection cost several times over.

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

When we find problems during your sewer camera inspection, we provide you with clear video evidence and explain exactly what each issue means for your plumbing system. We prioritize problems by urgency—distinguishing between issues that need immediate attention and those you can monitor over time. You receive transparent, upfront pricing for any recommended repairs before we begin work. Minor issues like root cutting or drain cleaning can often be completed the same day. More complex problems like pipe replacement are explained with multiple repair options, including modern trenchless methods that minimize excavation. We never pressure you into unnecessary repairs. Instead, we provide honest recommendations based on what the camera reveals, helping you make informed decisions about your plumbing system. All our repair work comes with warranties covering both parts and labor, giving you confidence in the solutions we provide.
