What the House Is Doing, and What Is Usually Behind It
Six things that send people looking for a camera, and the fault that normally turns out to be causing each one.
Slow drains all over the house
Not one fixture but several, and plunging the nearest one changes nothing.
Usually: a restriction in the shared line: scale, grease, or roots narrowing the bore
Gurgling when another fixture runs
Flush the toilet and the tub burbles. Air is being pushed somewhere it should not go.
Usually: a partial blockage downstream, forcing air back through the traps
Sewage backing up indoors
Waste coming up into a tub, a shower, or the lowest drain in the house.
Usually: a full blockage or a collapsed section, and it will not clear itself
A soggy patch or a lush green stripe
Ground that stays wet in dry weather, often in a line across the yard.
Usually: a break or an open joint leaking into the soil along the run
Backflow between fixtures
Run the washer and the shower fills. Waste is finding the wrong way out.
Usually: a blockage past the point where those two lines meet
Sewer smell inside or out
A smell that keeps coming back no matter how much you clean the drains.
Usually: a cracked pipe or a dry trap letting gas escape where it should be sealed
Finding the Fault and Locating It Are Two Different Jobs
A camera shows you a cracked pipe. It does not, by itself, tell anyone standing in your garden where that crack is or how far down. That second part is what decides whether the repair is one hole in a flowerbed or a trench across the lawn, and it is the part almost nobody asks about.
Seen, but not located
You know there is a break somewhere in the run. The only way to reach it is to open ground until you find it, and every foot of that is your yard.
Located, then dug once
The camera head carries a small transmitter. A receiver above ground finds it, we mark the spot and the depth, and the dig starts where the fault actually is.
Why it changes the bill more than the inspection does. Excavation is usually the expensive half of a sewer repair, and its cost tracks how much ground gets opened and put back. Narrowing that from a search to a single spot is where the money actually moves. It is also what lets us tell you honestly whether the fault sits under lawn, under a driveway, or under something nobody wants to dig up, before you commit to anything.

How the Visit Goes
Schedule
Tell us what the house is doing and we will bring the camera to it.
We Inspect
The camera goes in through an access point and runs the length of the line.
You See It Too
You watch the same screen we do, and you keep the footage afterward.
Clear Plan
What is wrong, where it is, and the options, with a price before anything starts.
Buying or selling rather than fixing? Same camera, different job, and the timing works completely differently because you are on a contract clock. We cover the deadlines, the room you have to negotiate, and what a report is actually worth on our real estate sewer and pipe inspection page.
Stop Guessing and Look Inside
One visit tells you what is wrong, where it is, and what it will take. You keep the footage either way.

Sewer Camera Inspection FAQs
How often should I have my sewer lines inspected?
We suggest an inspection every two years if you have an older home or a history of plumbing problems. Regular inspections catch issues early and save you from expensive repairs down the road.
What does a sewer camera inspection show?
A camera gives a real view of what is inside your pipes. It lets us diagnose blockages, cracks, and tree root intrusion without digging, so we can identify the exact problem and the right repair.
Is a sewer camera inspection invasive?
No. The camera travels through the existing line, so we can examine your sewer pipes with no digging in your yard and no tearing into your walls.
What are the warning signs I need an inspection?
Watch for slow drains, gurgling sounds, sewage backups, standing water, backflow between fixtures, bad smells from drains, and a yard that stays soggy with no rain. Any of these is a reason to look inside the line.
What problems do you commonly find?
Most often corrosion in older metal lines, cracked or broken sections, tree root intrusion, bellies where the pipe has sagged and holds water, offset joints, scale narrowing the bore, and outright blockages. The grid further up this page maps the common symptoms to which of these is usually behind them.
Can you tell me where the problem is, not just what it is?
Yes, and it matters more than most people expect. The camera head carries a small transmitter, and a receiver above ground picks up that signal so we can mark the spot on the surface and estimate the depth. That is what turns a repair into one hole in the right place rather than a trench dug looking for it.
Should I get a sewer inspection before buying a home?
Yes, and it is a slightly different job with its own timing, because you are working to a contract deadline. We cover that on our real estate sewer and pipe inspection page.
Will an inspection really save me money?
Often, yes. Catching a blockage, crack, or root intrusion early prevents it from growing into a major repair or a sewage backup, and knowing exactly where the fault sits keeps the repair itself smaller.
What areas do you serve?
We serve homeowners across Onslow, Pender, and New Hanover Counties, including Greater Jacksonville, North Carolina and the surrounding coastal communities. In Carteret County we serve Cedar Point.
