Sewer Camera Inspection
Nobody should quote you a sewer replacement without showing you why. A camera turns an expensive guess into a decision you can actually make.
What the camera finds
Root intrusion
Roots entering at joints, and how far the damage extends. This determines whether you need a spot repair or a full replacement.
Cracks and collapse
Structural failure in clay or cast iron, common in older Rancho Bernardo and Escondido lines.
Bellies
A dip where the pipe has settled and waste collects. Bellies cause repeat clogs that no amount of snaking will permanently fix.
Offset joints
Sections that have shifted out of alignment, catching solids every time.
Buildup and scale
How much of the interior diameter you have actually lost, which tells us whether jetting will help.
Foreign objects
Wipes, construction debris and the occasional item a child posted into the system.
Why it is worth the fee
It locates the problem, not just identifies it
A sonde transmitter in the camera head lets us mark the exact position and depth in the yard. That is the difference between a targeted repair and digging a trench across your lawn hoping.
It rules things out
Plenty of inspections end with good news: the line is sound and the clog was ordinary. That is worth knowing before spending thousands.
Before buying a house
On any older San Diego property, a sewer camera before closing is among the highest-value inspections available.
