Our Suffolk County roots run deep. We know the soil conditions, the common pipe problems, and the local regulations that affect your property.

Within minutes, you have a complete picture of your system’s condition. We provide immediate findings and can prepare written reports the same day if you need documentation for insurance, property transfers, or contractor estimates.

Camera inspection typically costs $200-400 for most residential properties in Centereach, depending on the complexity of your system and how many lines need inspection. This investment often saves thousands by identifying problems before they cause system failures.
The cost includes the inspection itself, real-time viewing of your pipes, and documentation of any issues we discover. If you decide to have us address problems we find, we often discount the inspection cost from your repair bill.

In Centereach homes, we commonly find issues caused by settling soil, tree roots from mature landscaping, and aging pipe materials that have reached the end of their useful life. Our thermal imaging can even detect temperature variations that indicate leaks or flow problems.
The camera inspection shows you the exact location and severity of any problems, so you understand whether issues need immediate attention or can be monitored over time. This prevents both emergency situations and unnecessary repairs.

Yes, our camera inspection equipment includes locating technology that can trace your pipes and identify where they connect to your cesspool or septic tank. This is especially valuable in Centereach where many systems were installed decades ago without proper documentation.
