Sewer & Drain Inspections

A sewer and drain inspection is a professional evaluation of your home’s drain and sewer piping to identify blockages, damage, deterioration, or other issues that may not be visible from the outside. At Specialty Plumbing and Drains, we use specialized equipment, including high-resolution sewer cameras, to inspect the inside of your pipes and determine exactly what’s happening within your plumbing system.

 

What Happens During a Sewer & Drain Inspection?

• Accessing the Drain or Sewer Line: Our plumber locates an appropriate access point, such as a cleanout, to safely access the drain or sewer line.

• Camera Inspection: We insert a flexible, waterproof camera into the pipe and guide it through the system. The live video allows us to see inside your piping without unnecessary digging or excavation.

• Identifying Problems: Our inspections can reveal issues such as clogs, grease buildup, tree root intrusion, cracked or broken pipes, corrosion, collapsed lines, separated joints, and improper pipe connections.

• Locating the Problem: If an issue is discovered, our camera equipment helps us determine its exact location and approximate depth, making it easier to recommend the right repair.

• Evaluating Pipe Condition: A professional inspection provides valuable insight into the overall condition of your sewer and drain lines, helping identify potential problems before they turn into costly emergencies.

• Recommending the Right Solution: After the inspection, we explain our findings and recommend the best course of action. Depending on the condition of your system, solutions may include drain cleaning, hydro jetting, sewer repairs, spot repairs, or trenchless sewer replacement.
