Sewer Camera Inspection in La Mirada, CA

Eliminate the Guesswork with Video Pipe Diagnostics

Underground sewer lines are completely invisible from above ground. When a sewer lateral backs up, attempting to diagnose the issue without visual verification is mere guesswork. Was the backup caused by a soft toilet paper plug, an aggressive tree root invasion, an offset clay joint, or a cracked and collapsed pipe?

Our high-definition sewer camera inspection services insert a self-leveling, waterproof color camera equipped with ultra-bright LED lighting deep into your sewer lateral. As the flexible push rod navigates through the line, our technician views real-time, high-resolution footage on a rugged digital monitor, precisely diagnosing the nature, severity, and exact distance of any underground anomaly.

What We Uncover During a Sewer Video Inspection

• Tree Root Intrusion: Identifying the exact joints where roots have breached the pipe, assessing root density, and evaluating whether root mass can be safely sheared off via hydro jetting.
• Pipe Offsets & Misalignment: Detecting sections where ground settling or seismic activity in Southern California has shifted pipe joints out of alignment.
• Cracks, Fractures & Collapses: Spotting hairline stress fractures, structural breaks, or missing pipe crowns before catastrophic sinkholes occur.
• Sewer Sags & Bellies: Measuring low areas where pipe slope has been lost, causing water and waste solids to pool.
• Cast Iron Scale & Corrosion: Evaluating interior wall roughness, rust tuberculation, and bottom channeling in aging metal lines.
• Foreign Objects & Severe Grease Dams: Pinpointing flushable wipes, children's toys, construction debris, or solidified grease dams.

When Should You Schedule a Sewer Camera Inspection?

• . Prior to Hydro Jetting: We always inspect before hydro jetting to confirm the line's structural integrity and calibrate water pressure safely.
• . Before Purchasing a Home: Standard home inspectors do not inspect underground sewer laterals. A dedicated pre-purchase sewer camera inspection can save buyers thousands in unforeseen sewer repairs.
• . Recurring Sewer Backups: If a property requires drain cleaning more than twice a year, a video inspection uncovers the permanent structural defect causing the problem.
• . Post-Cleaning Verification: Inspecting after hydro jetting ensures the pipe has been scoured 100% clean and verifies that root masses have been fully cleared.
