Plumbing problems below the surface are tough to diagnose — especially when you’re dealing with sewer lines buried underground. Traditional methods often involve guesswork, unnecessary digging, and expensive trial-and-error repairs. That’s where sewer camera inspections come in.
At RB Plumbing Sewer & Drains, Inc., we use state-of-the-art sewer camera technology to detect the exact cause of plumbing issues, saving homeowners time, money, and a lot of stress.
What Is a Sewer Camera Inspection?
A sewer camera inspection involves feeding a waterproof, high-definition camera into your home’s sewer line or drainpipes. The live video feed is displayed on a monitor, allowing a licensed plumber to see exactly what’s happening inside your pipes — without excavation.
Common Issues It Can Detect
This advanced diagnostic tool allows us to quickly and accurately identify problems such as:
- Blockages from grease, debris, or tree roots
- Cracks, breaks, or collapsed pipes
- Bellied or sagging lines
- Misaligned pipe joints
- Corrosion or scale buildup
- Evidence of prior improper repairs
Knowing the exact cause allows for targeted repairs — not expensive guesswork.
Why It Saves You Money
Here’s how sewer camera inspections prevent unnecessary costs:
- No unnecessary digging – Avoid tearing up your yard, driveway, or foundation.
- Faster diagnosis – Technicians can pinpoint the problem in minutes, not hours.
- Prevents repeat problems – Solve the real issue the first time.
- Ideal for homebuyers – Catch hidden sewer issues before closing on a home.
Without a camera inspection, many homeowners end up paying for repairs they didn’t actually need.
When to Get One
Consider a sewer camera inspection if:
- You’ve had recurring drain backups
- You smell sewer odors inside or outside the home
- You’re buying a home with older plumbing
- You want to confirm your line is clear after a major clog
- You’re planning a bathroom or kitchen remodel
A quick inspection can prevent thousands in future repairs.
