Preventative care is of the utmost importance for the health and longevity of your home. Sewer lines carry out a necessary role in your plumbing system, and issues with this vital component can require expensive and tedious repairs or replacements. Not to mention the possible damage your property could face. For these reasons, we at The Pipe Medic offer and recommend regular sewer camera inspections. A sewer line camera inspection in Atlanta, GA gives us high-quality and accurate visual footage of your sewer lines so that we can determine the problem before it becomes a bigger inconvenience.
The Pipe Medic offers our video pipe inspection services in the following locations:
- Atlanta, GA
- Canton, GA
- Roswell, GA
- Marietta, GA

What Causes Sewer Line Damage?
Sewer system damage can be due to blockages, corrosion, tree root intrusion, and other environmental factors. There could be several spots in your system that require immediate attention or just one part that is causing the whole system to fail. Whatever the reasons and locations of damage are, The Pipe Medic team can identify and pinpoint it through advanced CCTV sewer inspection.
How We Carry Out the Inspection Process
The equipment we use for our sewer scope inspection services is simply inserted into an access point and comes with a portable screen that allows the technician to watch the footage in real time. This inspection process is quick, efficient, and non-invasive, meaning it causes minimal disturbance to your property.
Our technicians are trained professionals with the necessary knowledge and expertise to operate the equipment and analyze the footage. They will carefully navigate through your sewer lines, documenting any damage or blockages they come across. After the inspection is complete, we will provide you with a detailed report and recommendations for any necessary repairs or preventative measures.
All of our inspection reports are uploaded to YouTube or can be sent to you via a USB drive, allowing you to easily access and share the footage with other professionals if needed.
Advanced Equipment That Ensures Accurate Results
Our cameras can be used for pipe diameters ranging from 2 to 96 inches, and the fiber optic cables we attach them to allow them to bend with the natural curves of the pipe system. We take pride in being able to offer current equipment utilized for a plumbing camera inspection that can better address your needs. This gives us a great deal of access to portions that could be hard to reach, like those leading up to the main sewer line.
In addition, we also work with different types of cameras designed to be more effective in certain pipeline sizes and account for different conditions the pipes could be in. This preparedness ensures that we aren’t limited in the ways that we can assist our customers when they need a thorough drain inspection in Atlanta, GA. These cameras utilize high-resolution features to help our technicians easily identify the pipelines’ current or potential problems. Weakened portions or excessive corrosion are otherwise difficult to locate without advanced video equipment, and if left undetected, these weakened areas can become more severely damaged later on.
Repair and Replacement of Sewer Lines
Pipe damage is inevitable because of the pipe’s lifespan and usage, as well as other factors that can contribute to its wear and tear. If the sewer camera inspection reveals that there is already damage to the pipeline, our team may offer trenchless repair and replacement options. Trenchless methods are just as stress-free as the inspection and can have your home back up and running within a short time period.
Sewer Camera Inspection FAQs
Sewer camera inspections are excellent for identifying sewer line issues such as blockages, corrosion, and obstructions. But they do have certain limitations. For instance, detecting leaks with absolute certainty is not possible with camera inspections alone. This is because leaks are often associated with subtle signs that may be challenging to capture on camera, such as small drips or moisture accumulation outside the pipe. To detect leaks, we may need to supplement the inspection with other methods, such as smoke testing or hydrostatic pressure testing.
The duration can vary depending on the size and complexity of your sewer system. However, on average, it takes around 1-2 hours to complete a thorough inspection. Factors that may affect the duration include the length of your sewer lines, the number of access points, and any potential issues or blockages encountered during the inspection.
It is recommended to have a sewer camera inspection done every few years as part of routine maintenance. However, if you experience recurring sewer issues, having the pipes inspected more frequently may be necessary.
