No more guessing games when your drains slow down or toilets back up. Our camera inspection service shows you exactly what’s happening inside your pipes in real-time. You’ll see the problem on a monitor as we navigate through your sewer lines, pinpointing blockages, cracks, or root intrusions down to the exact location.
This means faster repairs, lower costs, and no unnecessary digging in your yard. Instead of expensive exploratory work that might miss the real issue, you get precise answers that lead to targeted solutions. Your time matters, and so does your property.
We’ve been North Amityville’s go-to cesspool and drain company since 1998. As a family-owned business, we understand what matters to Suffolk County homeowners – reliable service without the runaround.
With over 325 five-star reviews and a BBB A+ rating, we’ve earned our reputation through consistent, transparent work. We know North Amityville’s unique challenges, from Long Island’s shifting sandy soil that causes pipe bellies to the mature trees whose roots love to invade sewer lines.
The process starts with accessing your pipes through the clean-out section, often without entering your home at all. A high-resolution waterproof camera attached to a flexible cable travels through your entire system, from 2-inch drain lines to 36-inch main sewers.
You watch everything in real-time on our monitor as the camera navigates through turns and bends, revealing the true condition of your pipes. Radio transmitters on the camera record the exact depth and location of any problems we find. If we spot an issue, we know precisely where it is without any guesswork.
The entire inspection is recorded for your records, and you’ll have a complete understanding of your system’s condition before we recommend any repairs.

Camera inspection in North Amityville reveals problems specific to our area. Long Island’s sandy soil shifts over time, creating low spots in pipes where waste gets trapped. Our cameras identify these “pipe bellies” before they cause major backups.
Tree roots are another common issue here. Those beautiful oak and maple trees throughout North Amityville have aggressive root systems that squeeze through tiny pipe cracks and grow until they completely block your lines. Camera inspection spots root intrusion early, when it’s still manageable.
For homebuyers, this service is essential. Many lenders require video camera inspection for real estate closings, and it’s much smarter than inheriting someone else’s plumbing problems. A $300 inspection can save you from a $10,000 surprise after closing.
Most residential camera inspections in North Amityville range from $200 to $400, depending on your pipe length and accessibility. Compare that to emergency sewer repairs that start around $3,000 and quickly reach $10,000 or more when pipes need replacement.
The inspection pays for itself by catching problems while they’re still manageable and affordable to fix. Many customers tell us they wish they’d done this sooner, before small issues became expensive emergencies.
No digging required. We access your pipes through existing clean-outs, usually located outside your home. The flexible camera travels through your entire system without any excavation or property damage.
This non-invasive approach means no torn-up lawns, no damaged driveways, and no expensive restoration work afterward. You get all the answers you need while keeping your property intact. If repairs are needed, we know exactly where to work instead of digging exploratory holes.
Camera inspection reveals the most common issues affecting North Amityville properties. Tree root intrusion is big here – those mature trees have root systems that love sewer pipes. We also find pipe bellies caused by Long Island’s shifting sandy soil, where pipes sag and create waste-trapping low spots.
Older homes often have cracked or collapsed clay or cast iron pipes from ground movement or decades of use. We spot foreign objects, grease buildup, and structural damage that isn’t visible from the surface. The camera shows everything in high-resolution detail.
Many lenders and banks require video camera inspection for real estate closings, especially for properties with septic systems or older plumbing. It’s becoming standard practice because it protects both buyers and lenders from hidden plumbing disasters.
Even when not required, smart buyers use camera inspection to avoid inheriting expensive problems. A few hundred dollars for inspection is nothing compared to discovering major sewer line issues after you own the property. We provide all documentation needed for your closing.
Most residential camera inspections take 1-2 hours, depending on your system size and complexity. We don’t rush the process because thoroughness matters when you’re making important decisions about your property.
