What A Sewer Camera Inspection Is
We guide a small, high-definition camera through your main sewer line to record the condition of the pipe from the inside. The live video shows clogs, roots, cracks, offsets, bellies, and other trouble spots while we measure the exact distance and depth. There is no digging for the inspection itself. You see what we see on the screen, and we explain what it means for your home.
If we find heavy buildup or a soft blockage, we can often restore flow with sewer cleaning and then run the camera again to confirm results.

Local Issues We Commonly See In Middle River
Middle River and nearby Baltimore County neighborhoods include a mix of older homes and newer builds. Many properties have mature trees and long sewer runs that can allow roots to enter at joints. Seasonal swings matter too. Heavy spring rains can raise groundwater and reveal low spots in pipes. Cold snaps followed by sudden thaws may shift soil and stress aging lines. Kitchens that see a lot of cooking can also collect grease that narrows the pipe over time.
That is why a camera inspection is so helpful. It separates a one-time clog from a deeper issue like a broken joint or a section that holds water. When we see the full picture, we can recommend the simplest fix first.
Local tip: Many backups start with small amounts of grease and wipes that pile up in a low spot. Avoid pouring fats down the sink and never flush wipes. If you have had more than one backup in a year, a camera inspection can catch problems early and save on emergency calls.
