When a camera inspection pays for itself

Buying a home — especially pre-1990 with cast iron under the slab
Recurring clogs that keep coming back after cabling
Sewage smells, wet spots in the yard, or gurgling fixtures
Foundation repair planned or completed (lines often shift)
Roots suspected in older clay or cast iron lines
Insurance claim needing documented proof of a break

See It Before You Pay to Fix It

A sewer camera inspection is the cheapest insurance in plumbing. For a fraction of the cost of any repair, you know exactly what's happening inside your lines: root intrusion, bellied sections holding water, channeling in old cast iron, separated joints, or a clean healthy line that just needed maintenance. We record the run, locate problem spots from the surface with exact depth, and you keep the footage.

Pre-purchase inspections: do this before you close

Houston homes built before 1990 often have cast iron drain systems reaching the end of their lifespan — and a failed under-slab sewer is a $10,000–$30,000 surprise no option period should miss. We camera the home's sewer before you buy, document the condition on video, and give you a written report you can take straight to the negotiating table. Realtors across Houston use us for exactly this.

What every inspection includes

  • Full camera run of the main sewer line through a cleanout or accessible entry
  • Surface locating — we mark where problems sit and how deep they are
  • Recorded video you keep, plus our written findings
  • A straight verdict: healthy line, maintenance item, or repair needed — with a written price if it's the latter

No repair upselling — the camera doesn't lie

The dirty secret of "free camera inspections" from some outfits is that the camera is a sales tool. Ours isn't. You watch the screen with us in real time, the footage is yours either way, and if the line's fine, the report says the line's fine.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a sewer camera inspection cost in Houston?

Standalone camera inspections with locating typically run $250–$450 depending on access and line length. We often discount the inspection when combined with drain clearing, and credit it toward any repair we perform.

Should I get a sewer inspection before buying a house?

On any Houston home built before 1990 — absolutely. Cast iron under-slab drains from that era are failing across the city, and a 30-minute inspection during your option period can save you a five-figure surprise after closing.

Can the camera find exactly where the problem is?

Yes. The camera head carries a transmitter we trace from the surface, marking the exact location and depth of each defect — which is what turns a vague 'you need sewer work' into a precise, priced scope.

Do I get a copy of the video?

Always. The footage and a written summary are yours, whether or not you hire us for any repair — useful for insurance claims, home purchase negotiations, or a second opinion.
