Why You Might Need a Sewer Camera Inspection
If your plumbing is acting up and routine clearing isn’t doing the trick, it’s probably time to look deeper—literally. Sewer lines carry wastewater out of your home, and when something blocks, breaks, or shifts, the signs can show up in strange ways.
Some of the most common reasons to schedule a sewer camera inspection include:
- Frequent clogs in multiple drains
- Gurgling or bubbling sounds from pipes
- Sewage smells near drains or outside the home
- Unexplained wet spots in the yard
- Older pipes that haven’t been inspected in years
- Backups that return even after snaking
Even if you’re not dealing with an emergency, camera inspections are a great way to check the health of your plumbing—especially in older homes or before purchasing a property.

What Happens During a Sewer Camera Inspection?
A sewer camera inspection is exactly what it sounds like: we guide a small, waterproof camera through your sewer line to look for cracks, blockages, roots, or buildup. It’s fast, non-invasive, and incredibly helpful in figuring out what’s going on without tearing up your yard.
By booking R.J. Tilley Plumbing & Remodeling to perform an inspection, you benefit from:
- Pinpoint accuracy – We’ll find the exact location and nature of the issue, which helps avoid unnecessary work.
- No digging required – Since the camera goes through the line itself, there’s no need to disrupt your yard or flooring.
- See it for yourself – You’ll get a real-time look at what’s going on, so you can feel confident in your next steps.
- Smarter repairs – Once we’ve diagnosed the issue, we’ll offer clear solutions that address the real cause—not just the symptoms.
- Ongoing prevention – Even if everything looks good, you’ll know what shape your sewer line is in and whether anything needs to be monitored.
The whole process usually takes less than an hour, and we’ll explain what we see every step of the way. Once done, we’ll provide a detailed report and recommendations to help you make informed decisions about your property's sewer line maintenance.
