Sewer Camera Inspection

A sewer camera inspection in Elizabeth, NJ sends a small waterproof camera on a flexible cable through the cleanout and along the main line. The picture can show roots, cracks, offset joints, a sag where water sits, or a collapse, and where each one is.

What the camera can show
A plumber typically watches the screen as the camera moves, notes the distance to each defect, and may use a locator to mark its spot and depth above ground. Ask for a copy of the recording so you can compare repair options with it.

With 72.5% of Elizabeth homes built before 1980, many lines have aging joints. A fully blocked line may need clearing before the camera can pass, so mention any recent backups when you call.

Call about a camera inspection and say how old the building is, where the cleanout is, and which symptoms you have noticed.
