Every drain guess costs money — the snake that misses, the repair that treats the wrong section, the excavation that tears up the wrong part of the yard. A sewer camera ends the guessing. A small waterproof camera on a flexible line travels your sewer lateral and shows exactly what's happening inside: roots, breaks, bellies, grease, scale, offsets — in real time, on screen.
Our camera inspections give you the full picture: the footage, the location and depth of every problem, and a straight explanation of what it means for your drains. You'll see what we see. That footage turns every later decision — jetting, spot repair, or leaving it alone — from a gamble into a plan.
If your drains keep acting up and nobody has shown you the inside of your line, it's time. A camera inspection is the single highest-value hour you can spend on a recurring drain problem.
Signs you need a camera inspection
- The same drain or sewer line has clogged three or more times
- Multiple drains in the house back up at once
- A previous plumber recommended a repair but couldn't show you proof
- You're considering buying an older Stow home and want the sewer line checked
- Sewage odor in the yard or around the foundation
- Lush green patches or soggy spots in the yard above the sewer line
How we inspect your sewer line
1 Access the line
We enter through a cleanout, a removed toilet flange, or a roof vent — the least invasive access that reaches the lateral. Most inspections need no digging and no mess.
2 Run the camera
The camera travels the full lateral to the street connection, recording everything. Our technicians narrate what they're seeing as it happens — roots at the joints, bellies holding water, cracks, offsets, intrusions.
3 Locate and measure
A locator above ground pinpoints exactly where the camera is, marking the location and depth of each problem on the surface. No more guessing where the bad section lies.
4 Show you the footage
You watch the footage with us and get the recording. We explain what each finding means, what can wait, what can't, and what each repair option involves — then you decide with full information.
Why camera inspection matters in Stow
In a city built on clay tile laterals, the camera is everything. Clay joints shift in freeze-thaw clay soil, and the camera shows exactly which joints have separated, which are full of roots, and which are still sound. That precision matters because the fix varies by joint: a single root-choked joint might need jetting, while a collapsed section needs repair — and digging up the wrong one wastes thousands. Stow's older homes also hide surprises: long-unused lines, lines that were tied together during remodels, and cast-iron transitions that have corroded through. The camera finds all of it before money gets spent.
