Camera Inspection

Capri Plumbing utilizes cutting-edge drain and sewer inspection equipment. Our specialized fiber optic camera allows us to view the interior of drain and sewer lines and pinpoint problem areas without the need for digging. By using advanced equipment to inspect sewer lines, we save you both time and money, avoiding the hassle of excavating your yard or driveway.

Our advanced camera equipment at Capri Plumbing enables our technicians to accurately assess the severity of your drain issues without compromising the integrity of your home and sewer system. This state-of-the-art sewer equipment can record, take photos, provide live views, and locate specific sections of the sewer line. The sewer camera is inserted through a single access point in your sewer system, which can vary depending on your home. Common access points include kitchen cleanouts, mainline cleanouts, wall cleanouts, toilet flanges, P-traps, and roof vents.

Why You Need a Sewer Inspection

Have you ever wondered why your kitchen, laundry, and toilet keep backing up? This is an ideal time for you, as a homeowner, to get a visual inspection of your sewer line to identify the underlying issues causing these stoppages. If there is a clog, we can pinpoint the exact location and understand why this stubborn blockage persists. Every home has stubborn blockages that we get accustomed to, but drains are meant to relieve water, not hold it and cause sewage backups.

​

Common issues that cause blockages include excessive use of wipes, old cast iron pipes, scale buildup, offsets, bellies, breaks, and root intrusions. These underlying problems require immediate camera inspections to prevent further damage and ensure your plumbing system functions properly.

Benefits of Camera Inspection

  • Identifying Blockages: When we identify a clog, we can determine the best method to clear or break it up. If the blockage involves a valuable item, we may be able to retrieve it. Depending on the type of blockage, such as grease, oil, hair, or mineral buildup, we can recommend preventive measures to avoid future issues.

  • Immediate Live Feedback of Sewer Lines: If you're planning renovations or construction, our sewer camera inspection system can measure pipe lengths and other specifications, accurately tracing your sewer lines to identify their exact locations.

  • Time Efficiency: Our camera inspections allow us to check aging sewer lines for early signs of corrosion and deterioration, preventing major repairs later. We can also pinpoint exactly where to perform hydrojetting or trenchless pipe relining if necessary.

  • New Home Inspection: We can assist with regulatory requirements for inspections or check plumbing and sewer lines before you move into a new home. This ensures you are aware of any hidden problems on the property.

  • Time Management & Cost Effective: Without cameras for inspection, finding plumbing problems requires breaking up walls or digging underground. This trial-and-error method is disruptive, tedious, and expensive. Using our advanced camera equipment, we can inspect your sewer line without the need for invasive digging, saving you both time and money.
