Benefits of Camera Inspections for Main Sewer Lines

Picture this: your sink is gurgling, the toilet’s backing up, and your worst fear is unfolding – a clogged sewer line. You start to imagine a team of workers digging up your entire yard, replacing pipes and leaving behind a muddy and chaotic mess. But hold on! Before you resign yourself to that fate, there’s a modern solution that can save your yard and your wallet: sewer line camera inspections.

Goettl DrainSnake Still

Diagnosing sewer line problems above ground can be difficult since it’s impossible to see the inside of the sewer system. With the help of high-quality imaging and waterproof video equipment, you can get an up-close view of the condition of your sewer and get your home’s systems back to normal in no time. 

Sewer video technology is an extremely effective way to uncover a variety of issues—including the overall condition of the sewer system, clogs, cracked pipes, and obstructions by tree roots—in real time.

Best of all, this method of diagnosing a sewer issue means no more digging up your yard. Additionally, homeowners save money by knowing the exact problem and location, allowing plumbers to fix the issue efficiently.

How a Sewer Camera Inspection Works

  1. The plumber inserts the camera into a cleanout, an access point located along your sewer line.
  2. Powerful LED lights illuminate the pipe’s interior, allowing the camera to capture clear video footage.
  3. The video is transmitted to a monitor, where you and the plumber can watch the live feed, revealing cracks, breaks, clogs, root intrusion, and other issues.
  4. The camera’s maneuverability allows for a thorough inspection, pinpointing the exact location and nature of the problem.

Today’s camera technology offers high resolution, crystal-clear images for accurate diagnosis and can even record video footage for documentation and sharing with insurance companies.

The next time your sewer line throws a tantrum, ditch the shovel and embrace the power of cameras. Give us a call anytime! Your wallet and your yard will thank you.

Richard of Goettl was thorough in his work and showed me everything he was doing. He explained why the kitchen drain was so slow and showed me video of the drain from the sink practically to the street. It was educational. He was professional, polite, and knowledgeable. I recommend Goettl for your plumbing needs.

2.7.24Jay Cruz, technician, arrived on time today to service/check my ac/heating. Jay arrived timely and was friendly. Jay checked my inside unit, ceiling vents, etc and he made some recommendations. He was easy to talk to and very professional. He will be sending me an email with the recommendations and costs associated so that I can save the money to have these taken care of. I will say, no other technician has been as proficient as Jay.Yesterday, 2.6.24, I received a call from Betty. Betty was also very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. She listened to me and made recommendations and advice. By the end if the call, I felt like Betty was a friend.Thank you to Jay and Betty!Late one evening I was washing clothes. Daughter noticed water on floor under washer. I was so upset and worried about finding someone to fix the problem, whatever it was, and especially the cost. Goettl this the rescue! Namely, their employee/plumber, Chris! The next day, Chris came, found the clog in my pipes, and…voilà! We joined their $14.95 per month plan and that was all we paid for a job well done! Thank you!3.26.24Tyler Leija was great! He checked my drain pipe outside with a camera. Advised everything was clear. He checked my kitchen and master bathroom sinks and toilet. Tyler was friendly, but professional. Thank you.4.17.24Frank M arrived here on time. He was friendly and professional. He explained everything he was going to do today. He completed everything he mentioned. He provided suggestions of things that need or should be taken care of. Nothing urgent. He installed the water heater sensor in addition to other plumbing type things. He drained the water heater. He spoke to his supervisor, Terronne (sp?). Should received estimates for hvac and water heater. Thank you Frank! Great job!

Roy A. was a pleasure to work with. He thoroughly and expertly explained all of the issues with my system with pictures and videos. He was transparent about the remediation options available to me and patiently reviewed each option with me. The install team, Daniel and Roy, were equally as awesome. They too were extremely knowledgeable, patient with my questions, and worked diligently to get my new unit up and running safely in one day. I couldn’t have asked for a better team.
