What Is a Plumbing Camera Inspection?

A plumbing camera inspection is a non-invasive diagnostic service that uses a high-resolution waterproof camera attached to a flexible cable.
The camera is inserted into drain or sewer lines to visually inspect the interior of the pipe in real time.
This allows plumbers to identify blockages, cracks, root intrusion, pipe misalignment, corrosion, and other issues without excavation.

Camera inspections eliminate guesswork.
Instead of assuming the cause of a plumbing problem, plumbers can see the exact location and severity of the issue,
making repairs faster, more accurate, and more cost-effective.

Why Plumbing Camera Inspections Are So Important

Plumbing issues often originate deep within the drainage system.
Without visual confirmation, repairs may only address symptoms rather than root causes.
Plumbing camera inspections provide clarity and precision that traditional methods simply cannot match.

  • Pinpoints the exact location of blockages or damage
  • Identifies recurring or hidden problems
  • Prevents unnecessary digging or demolition
  • Supports accurate repair recommendations
  • Documents pipe condition for homeowners and buyers

In Toronto, where many homes have aging sewer infrastructure, camera inspections are especially valuable.


Common Problems Detected by Camera Inspections

Drain & Sewer Blockages

Cameras easily identify clogs caused by grease, debris, paper buildup, foreign objects, and accumulated waste.
This helps determine whether snaking, drain cleaning, or hydro jetting is the best solution.

Tree Root Intrusion

Roots often enter sewer lines through joints or cracks.
A camera inspection reveals the extent of root intrusion and whether repair or replacement is required.

Cracked, Collapsed, or Offset Pipes

Ground movement, aging materials, and freeze-thaw cycles can damage pipes.
Cameras reveal structural failures that are not visible from the surface.

Corrosion & Pipe Deterioration

Older cast iron and clay pipes often deteriorate internally.
Camera inspections help assess remaining pipe lifespan.

Improper Installation or Poor Slope

Incorrect slope or misaligned joints can cause chronic drainage problems.
Camera inspections confirm whether installation errors are present.


When You Should Schedule a Plumbing Camera Inspection

Camera inspections are recommended in many situations, including:

  • Recurring drain clogs or slow drainage
  • Frequent sewer backups
  • Sewage odors inside or outside the home
  • Before sewer line repair or replacement
  • Before hydro jetting older pipes
  • During home purchase inspections
  • After major plumbing renovations

Early inspection often prevents emergency repairs and costly property damage.


Our Plumbing Camera Inspection Process

1) System Access & Preparation

We access the plumbing system through existing cleanouts, floor drains, or fixture openings.
The line is prepared to ensure a clear visual feed.

2) Live Video Inspection

A high-resolution camera is guided through the pipe, transmitting real-time video to the technician.
We identify blockages, damage, and structural issues while tracking distance and location.

3) Issue Identification & Documentation

Findings are clearly explained to the homeowner.
Video footage may be recorded for documentation, insurance, or real estate purposes.

4) Repair & Maintenance Recommendations

Based on inspection results, we recommend appropriate solutions—whether drain cleaning, repair, or replacement—without unnecessary work.


Camera Inspections for Home Buyers & Sellers

A plumbing camera inspection is a valuable tool during real estate transactions.
Buyers gain insight into the condition of underground sewer lines,
while sellers can address issues proactively and avoid surprises during closing.

In Toronto’s competitive real estate market, documented sewer inspections provide peace of mind and negotiating clarity.


Camera Inspections for Condos & Multi-Unit Properties

Condo plumbing systems involve shared stacks and branch lines.
Camera inspections help determine whether issues are located within a unit or part of a shared system,
reducing disputes and unnecessary repairs.
