Professional Pipe Video Inspections for Commercial Properties

Camera and video pipe inspections are the gold standard for diagnosing hidden plumbing problems in commercial buildings. Our licensed plumbers deploy state-of-the-art HD camera systems down your sewer lines, drain pipes, and water service lines to capture real-time footage of pipe conditions — eliminating the need for expensive, invasive excavation and providing documentation your insurance company, property management firm, or future buyers will require.

Whether you are dealing with chronic backups, suspect a slab leak, are purchasing a commercial property, or need to verify repairs after drain cleaning or other work, our technicians provide detailed video evidence and professional written reports that meet industry standards and regulatory requirements. We identify tree root intrusion, cracks, corrosion, grease buildup, structural damage, and construction debris — all without breaking concrete or digging trenches.

Common Questions

Camera & Video Pipe Inspection FAQ

What can a camera inspection detect in commercial pipes?
A professional camera inspection can identify: tree root intrusion, cracks and fractures, corrosion and deterioration, grease and buildup, structural collapse or separation, foreign objects or debris, pipe material defects, proper slopes and alignment issues, and evidence of previous repairs or weak seals. The video documentation provides visual proof of any condition affecting drainage, water quality, or system integrity.
How long does a commercial pipe inspection take?
Most sewer line inspections take 30–90 minutes depending on line length and accessibility. A main sewer line inspection for a typical commercial property usually takes one to two hours. Branch drain inspections are typically shorter. We can provide a time estimate when you call based on your property layout and specific concerns. We work around your business schedule and can often schedule same-day service for emergencies.
Is camera inspection non-invasive?
Absolutely. Camera inspections are completely non-invasive. We access pipes through existing cleanout access points or temporarily installed camera access points — no digging, no trenching, no breaking concrete. This makes it ideal for identifying problems without disrupting your facility's operations, landscaping, or parking areas. We use existing utility access points to protect your property while providing complete visibility.
Should I get a camera inspection before buying a commercial property?
Yes, strongly recommended. A pre-purchase camera inspection provides due diligence documentation that protects your investment by revealing any hidden plumbing infrastructure issues before you close. This video evidence is accepted by lenders, insurance companies, and property appraisers. Identifying sewer line problems, root intrusion, or structural damage beforehand allows you to negotiate repair costs or walk away informed. It typically costs far less than emergency repairs after acquisition.
Do you provide video footage and written reports?
Yes. Every inspection includes a professional written report with video clips, annotated still photos, findings summary, and repair recommendations. We provide the report digitally and on USB drive suitable for sharing with insurance companies, real estate attorneys, facility managers, and other stakeholders. The report meets industry standards and is admissible in real estate and insurance proceedings.
Should we get a sewer camera inspection before buying or leasing a commercial property?
Emphatically yes — it is the highest-leverage few hundred dollars in commercial due diligence. The sewer lateral is one of the most expensive single components a property hides, and a failing one does not show on a standard building inspection. A pre-purchase scope documents pipe material, condition, root intrusion, bellies, and remaining life in writing; buyers regularly use our reports to renegotiate price or require repairs before closing. The same applies to tenants signing long leases where the lease makes them responsible for lines serving their suite.
Why do you clean lines before some camera inspections?
Because a camera cannot assess what it cannot see. In greasy or sludged lines the lens shows you the buildup, not the pipe wall behind it — cracks, scale, and joint failures hide under the coating. For condition assessments (as opposed to simply locating a blockage), we jet the line first so the footage shows actual wall condition. It is also the required prep before any lining or spot-repair work, so the cleaning is never wasted money.
What does a written inspection report include, and who uses it?
Every assessment can close with a written report: the recorded footage, pipe material and diameter, located defects with their distance and depth (we surface-mark them too), cause analysis, and prioritized repair options with our recommendation. Property managers attach them to owner capital requests, buyers use them in negotiations, and insurers ask for exactly this documentation on cause-of-failure claims. It turns an opinion about your pipes into evidence.
