The Ultimate Homeowner’s Guide To Sewer Camera Inspections

sewer camera line inspection

As a homeowner unfamiliar with plumbing terminology, a sewer camera inspection is the quickest way to understand the problems going on in your sewage system. The process involves putting long robotic snakes attached to cameras down the sewage system, which allow plumbers to have a real time inside look of the pipes. 

The flexibility of the snake combined with the camera attached to it, allows for bends and twists within the pipes, which in turn allows the plumber to make a precise diagnosis. 

Additionally, sewer camera inspections are very useful sort assessing the severity of damages which have already occurred. Typically, we send one of our camera experts at Master Rooter out to your residence or business. During the camera inspection, the camera guy slides a robotic snake attached to a camera, into the pipe or drain. The camera in turn, records and broadcasts a live feed to a screen, allowing our plumbers to quickly locate and fix the issue.
