Professional Sewer Scope & Camera Inspections in Austin, TX & Surrounding Areas
How Our Sewer Camera Inspection works
A standard home inspection stops at the walls. Our high-definition camera service takes the guesswork out of your home’s most expensive hidden system: the main lateral waste line.
Let's Talk!
Main Clean-Out Access
We access the primary drainage artery through the main exterior clean-out. This non-invasive method allows our cameras to follow the exact path of the pipe without disturbing your yard.
HD Video Recording
We record high-resolution video of the entire lateral line. We check the integrity beneath your foundation and verify the path all the way to the city sewer main.
Instant Video Evidence
You receive a digital copy of the footage and a professional report the same day. This provides the "video evidence" you need for repair negotiations or peace of mind.
