See it before you decide
Look inside the line.
A waterproof camera on a push cable travels through the sewer line and shows what's really there — roots, a sag, a break, or just buildup — with footage to back up any recommendation.

Questions we hear.
Does an inspection fix anything?
No — it shows what's going on so decisions are based on evidence. It's often paired with cleaning.
Can you inspect a line that's backed up?
Usually the line needs to be cleared first so the camera can see.
