What it is
What's actually happening inside your sewer line?
A sewer scope inspection uses a self-leveling HD camera fed through the main sewer line — from the cleanout out to the municipal connection. We capture full video, annotated still images, and a plain-English written summary.
Most pre-1980 Metro Detroit homes are still draining through their original lines. Without a camera, there's simply no way to know whether that line is healthy, compromised, or actively failing.
What we look for
- Cracks & fractures — points of root intrusion and infiltration
- Root intrusion — the single most common finding in Macomb & Oakland County homes
- Bellies & sags — low spots that collect debris and cause recurring backups
- Offset / separated joints — common in clay tile lines
- Orangeburg pipe failure — delamination in 1940s–70s homes
- Cast iron scaling — restricted flow in 1950s–80s homes
- Collapsed sections — the costliest single finding
No conflict of interest
We don't repair sewer lines.
When we find a problem, we document it — and you take the report to any plumber you trust. We have no financial reason to exaggerate findings, ever.
