What you get

- Distance from the access point to each finding
- A plain-English summary: roots, grease, sags, offsets, cracks or a clean line
- A recommendation: nothing, cleaning, jetting, or a referral to an NYC master plumber
Why it saves money
The camera turns a guess into evidence. If the line only needs cleaning, you avoid paying for a repair you don’t need. If it does need repair, every quote you get is based on the same footage.
Where we work
What we don't do. We clear, clean and inspect drains and sewer lines. If the camera shows a cracked, collapsed or separated line, you get the footage and a referral to an NYC master plumber for the fix. Why we work this way
Common questions
Is a camera inspection worth it?
When a line keeps clogging, before buying a house, or before agreeing to any digging. The footage tells you whether you need a cleaning or a repair.
Do I get the video?
Yes, along with a written summary of what we found and the distance to each issue.
Can you inspect a fully blocked line?
Not usually. We clear it first. Main line clearing, starting at $595, already includes the camera check.
Need a drain cleared?
