How a Camera Line Inspection Works

A camera line inspection involves inserting a flexible, waterproof camera cable into your plumbing system. This allows our technicians to view real-time footage inside your pipes, uncovering hidden issues that would otherwise require extensive digging to detect.

Common Issues Detected with Camera Inspections:

  • Cracked or Collapsed Pipes – Structural damage that may lead to leaks or complete pipe failure.
  • Blockages & Obstructions – Grease buildup, foreign objects, or debris causing slow drainage.
  • Leaking Joints – Faulty pipe connections leading to water waste or property damage.
  • Corrosion & Pipe Deterioration – Aging metal pipes weakening over time.
  • Root Intrusion – Tree roots infiltrating sewer lines and causing blockages.
  • Restricted Water Flow – Pipes clogged due to mineral buildup or accumulated waste.

This process eliminates guesswork, allowing our team to recommend the most effective repair solutions without unnecessary excavation. 

Benefits of Camera Line Inspection

Camera inspections are an efficient, cost-effective way to diagnose plumbing problems while saving time and money.

  • Quick & Accurate Diagnosis – Identify plumbing issues without excavation.
  • Prevents Unnecessary Repairs – Avoid costly and disruptive exploratory digging.
  • Video Footage – Upon request, we can provide a digital copy of the camera inspection footage.
  • Pinpoint Leak Locations – Detect minor leaks before they cause major water damage.
  • Efficient Repairs – Ensure the right solution is applied based on actual video footage.

With early detection, camera inspections help prevent expensive plumbing repairs in the future.

Michael came to our home today to fix a slow leak under our kitchen sink. He ended up looking at a strange sound emanating from the tub faucet in our master bathroom, quoting the replacement of several sump pumps, and a drain repair. All those quotes arrived the same day. In a world that seems to have forgotten service excellence, I give Michael and Waterworks an A+ for today’s performance.

Service was scheduled in a timely manner. Technician Mat Ball did a thorough evaluation of our kitchen sink drain issue and tub handle issue. He demonstrated professionalism, expertise and care. There have been no issues since the fixes were completed. We will definitely be calling on The Waterworks & Hetter Heating and Cooling again should we experience any future plumbing or HVAC problems.

Chad does a great job. He's very thorough and explains everything well. We recently moved and Chad worked on the system at our previous residence. Thus, it was comforting to have him again at our new home. We've always had the HVAC annual maintenance contract. It's a great value and JonLe calls us to schedule. So we don't have to remember. Great to work with. Thank you!!

I called Waterworks because the plumbers who did our home inspection scope couldn't find the exterior clean outs and saw ponded water, but couldn't jet due to weather + finished basement. Waterworks has the equipment necessary to locate their scope. Michael called to let us know his ETA, and also to clarify our concerns and hear what was going on and what the likely costs were going to be. Once there, he was able to use his equipment to confirm that there was no exterior clean outs, and that there was no clog causing the ponded water, and was able to map out the location of the sagging pipe. We're waiting on quotes for what repair would look like. 5/5 stars for finding what the other plumbers could not. Sure, the other guys cost 15% less, but I still needed a second plumber visit, so it didn't save me anything.

Kevin came again to clean out our basement pipe which has been invaded by tree roots. He was professional, polite, neat, and cleaned up everything nicely when he was done. He explained everything to us and took time for questions. He has a very pleasant personality and we look forward to having him come to our home again for this service next year. We highly recommend Waterworks!

I had an emergency backup that I needed cleared same day. I have used other companies in the past that resolve the problem at a low cost but want to come out later and sell expensive fixes. The experience with Waterworks was that they wanted to fix the drain blockage to the best of their ability at that time. If further work needed done it could still be evaluated, but there was more than a bandaid on my current issue.

Yessey is amazing awesome a tech who got our issues fixed promptly, efficiently, professional, friendly, and put under-sink boxes of cleaning products back under the sink where my old old body doesn't have to balance them myself!! Thank you WaterWorks !!! I we hadn't had these issues, the two vanities' plumbing were ready to break of as he worked them - oh, what a bigger mess we would have had!! We can hardly get to and from the floor to do many tasks any more and Yessey helped us IMMENSELY!! THANK YOU!!! Today, Ryan showed me how to change the filter on the water system we'd had out in. It was new, different style - i didnt want a water mess for doing it incorrectly. The 2nd reason for the appointment was to fix the leak on a bath sink faucet, ended up having to install a new faucet i had purchased in case that would be the fix. Ryan had to run out for a couple supplies, got back, installed the faucet and was on his way into the cold! Really appreciated his diligence. Thank you, Waterworks!!

The Waterworks company (A local Columbus Ohio company) delivered fast, professional service and provided a dependable solution when my sump pump failed and flooded my basement. The technician clearly explained all available options and costs, helping me make an informed decision on the spot. He replaced the old pump and completed the new installation that same afternoon—efficient, thorough, and stress-free. Thanks Waterworks for five (5) star service in my moment of crisis! You saved the day.

Aaron will forever now be my first call when it comes to plumbing issues. He was thorough, responsive, and got my sewer line unblocked.
