FAQs
What is a sewer camera inspection and how does it work?
A sewer camera inspection is a non-invasive diagnostic service in which a licensed plumber feeds a waterproof, high-resolution camera attached to a flexible cable through an existing clean-out or small access point. The live video stream shows the interior condition of your main sewer line in real time on a monitor above ground. This allows the technician to pinpoint blockages, breaks, root intrusions, or pipe deterioration without digging up your yard.
What main line problems can a camera inspection detect?
High-definition footage helps us identify a wide range of issues, including tree-root intrusion, pipe collapse or bellies (sags), corrosion, cracks, offset joints, grease buildup, foreign objects, and improper slope. We can also verify the pipe’s material and diameter, confirm whether previous repairs were successful, and locate any illegal connections that may violate Fayetteville plumbing codes.
When should Fayetteville homeowners schedule a camera inspection?
Schedule a camera inspection if you have recurring drain backups, slow drains throughout the house, foul odors near floor drains, soggy spots in your yard, or if your home is more than 25–30 years old with original piping. It’s also highly recommended before purchasing a home, after major remodeling, or before listing your property, so you know the condition of the main line and avoid unexpected repair costs.
Will a camera inspection damage my pipes or landscaping?
No. The process uses the existing clean-out or a small access point inside the home, meaning no excavation or pipe damage is necessary. The camera and cable are designed to navigate bends and joints smoothly without scratching or stressing the pipe walls, so your plumbing and landscaping remain completely intact.
How much does a main line camera inspection cost in Fayetteville and what affects the price?
Most residential inspections range from $150 to $350 locally. Price varies based on pipe length, ease of access, whether a clean-out needs to be installed, and if you request added services such as digital recording, written reports for real-estate transactions, or line locating to mark the pipe’s path above ground. We provide upfront, flat-rate quotes before any work begins.
What happens after the inspection if an issue is found?
You’ll receive a detailed explanation of the problem along with video or still images. We then discuss all repair options—such as hydro-jetting, trenchless pipe lining, spot repairs, or traditional excavation—so you can make an informed decision. Because the camera records the exact depth and location of the defect, any necessary repair is targeted, less invasive, and more cost-effective.
