Video Sewer Inspection

See exactly what’s wrong before anyone quotes a repair.

Most of a home’s drain system is buried or behind walls, which makes diagnosing a sewer problem guesswork unless you can see inside the pipe. A video sewer inspection sends a waterproof camera down the line to show the real source of the problem: root intrusion, an offset or shifted joint, a belly where water and waste sit, a crack or a blockage. AccuFlow runs sewer camera inspections in Lodi, Acampo and nearby towns, shows you the footage in real time, and locates the problem spot from above ground so any repair opens only what it needs to.

When a sewer camera inspection makes sense

Book a sewer line inspection when a clog keeps coming back after cleaning, when several drains back up at once, when you smell sewage in the yard, or before you buy an older home. It is also smart before a kitchen or bathroom remodel that ties into the old drain, and after a repair to confirm the line is clear. Recurring problems usually have one cause, and the camera finds it.

Signs you need a sewer camera inspection

  • Recurring drain clogs even after professional cleaning
  • Suspected broken or collapsed underground pipe
  • Sewage smell or soggy spots in the yard
  • Planning a remodel that ties into existing drains
  • Buying or selling a home with older plumbing
  • Backups after heavy rain

What the camera can find

Roots show up as hair-like masses pushing through joints. Bellies are sagging sections where water stands and solids settle. Offset joints catch debris and let roots in. Cracks, breaks and collapsed sections show where the pipe has failed. Each finding points to a different fix, from routine hydro jetting to a spot repair or trenchless replacement, and we explain the options with the footage in front of you.

Buying an older home?

A standard home inspection usually doesn’t include the sewer line, and older valley homes often still have clay or cast iron pipe. A pre-purchase sewer scope tells you whether the line is sound, needs cleaning, or needs a repair you should negotiate before closing. The footage is also useful documentation for insurance claims and real estate transactions.

What affects the cost of a sewer camera inspection

  • Access: an existing cleanout, or the camera has to go in through a toilet or roof vent.
  • Line length: longer runs to the street take more time.
  • Clogged line: a blocked line may need clearing before the camera can go through.
  • Locating: marking the problem spot and depth from above ground.
