What is a video pipe inspection?

A video pipe inspection, also called a CCTV plumbing inspection, sewer camera inspection or plumbing camera inspection, is the fastest and most accurate way to diagnose a drain or sewer line. Instead of guessing, digging or replacing pipe that may be perfectly fine, our technicians feed a video camera through the line and inspect it from the inside. Whether you need a sewer line inspection for a home you are buying, a CCTV drain inspection for a restaurant or a sewer pipe video inspection to learn why the main line keeps backing up, the camera shows the truth.

Why Los Angeles property owners rely on it

Much of Los Angeles was built decades ago, and many homes and buildings still run on aging clay or cast iron sewer laterals. Mature trees push roots into joints, ground movement can crack or sag older lines, and cast iron scales and corrodes from the inside. A video camera pipe inspection finds these problems early, before they turn into a backup, a flooded floor or an expensive emergency. In Los Angeles the sewer lateral from the building to the city main is generally the property owner's responsibility, so knowing its condition protects your investment.

What our pipe video inspection camera finds

Tree root intrusion

Roots entering through joints and cracks, the most common cause of recurring main line clogs.

Cracks and breaks

Fractures in clay, cast iron, ABS and PVC lines, found before they collapse.

Bellies and sags

Low spots where water and waste settle and keep building new blockages.

Offset joints

Shifted or separated pipe sections that catch debris and leak into the soil.

Grease and scale

Heavy buildup narrowing the pipe, common in kitchen lines and older cast iron.

Corrosion

Rust and deterioration inside cast iron and galvanized lines.

Collapsed sections

Crushed or caved-in pipe that needs a targeted repair or replacement.

Blockages and objects

Wipes, debris and foreign objects lodged in the line, located precisely.

From footage to fix in five steps

    Fast dispatch

    Call any hour. A licensed plumber with camera equipment is dispatched fast, often the same day.

  3. 03

    We locate the exact problem, its distance from the access point and its depth below the surface.

Video pipe inspection questions

What is a video pipe inspection?

A video pipe inspection, also called a CCTV plumbing inspection or sewer camera inspection, uses a waterproof camera on a flexible push cable to look inside drain and sewer lines. It shows cracks, tree roots, bellies, offset joints, buildup and blockages in real time, so the problem can be diagnosed without digging.

How does a CCTV sewer line inspection work?

A licensed plumber inserts the camera through a cleanout or other access point and pushes it through the line while live video streams to a monitor. A locating signal from the camera head lets the technician mark the exact position and depth of any problem from the surface, so repairs can target only the damaged section.

Do I need a sewer line inspection before buying a house in Los Angeles?

It is strongly recommended, especially for older Los Angeles homes with clay or cast iron sewer laterals. A standard home inspection usually does not include the sewer line, and in Los Angeles the lateral from the house to the city main is generally the property owner's responsibility. A pre-purchase sewer pipe video inspection shows its condition before you close.

Can a plumbing camera inspection find tree roots and cracks?

Yes. A plumbing camera inspection clearly shows root intrusion, cracks, breaks, corrosion, offset or separated joints, sagging sections, grease and scale buildup and lodged objects, along with where each one is located.

How fast can you do a video camera pipe inspection?

24/7 Rooter Service answers calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and dispatches fast, often the same day. Call (213) 281-4751 and a licensed plumber with camera equipment will be on the way.

Will a sewer camera damage my pipes?

No. The camera travels through the inside of the existing pipe from an access point, so a video pipe inspection is non-invasive and does not require digging.

“I reached out late on a Thursday evening, and true to their word, they had a team at my doorstep by 7:30 am the following morning. The team was efficient in clearing the blockage, and they had everything back together and tested in no time.”

“Tremendous work. I called and the crew came right away. Issue was a clogged drain pipe, but they went above and beyond, not just snaking the clog, but fixing the entire angle of the drain to be sure the clog didn't happen again. Fast. Efficient. Smart.”

What is hydro jetting, and when do I need it?

Hydro jetting sends high-pressure water through a drain or sewer line to scour away grease, scale, debris and tree roots, cleaning the full width of the pipe instead of just punching a hole through a clog. It is a good fit for slow drains that keep coming back, main line backups and older lines with heavy buildup.

Can you fix my sewer line without digging up the yard?

Often, yes. We start with a sewer camera inspection to see exactly what is wrong. Many damaged lines can then be repaired with trenchless sewer lining or pipe bursting, which needs only small access points instead of a long trench.

Do you handle commercial plumbing?

Yes. We serve restaurants, laundromats, apartment buildings, property managers and other businesses across Los Angeles, including commercial hydro jetting, drain and sewer work, water lines and emergency repairs.

What payment methods do you accept?

Leave the building right away, do not use switches or flames, and call 911 or your gas utility from outside. Once it is safe, call us for gas leak and gas line repair.
