What you actually get
A live video feed, and a recording. You see what the camera sees, not a technician's best guess.
One flat price for the inspection. No hourly meter for something that takes one visit to do right.
A plain-language walkthrough. We tell you what we found and what it means, not just hand you a video file.
A neighbor, not a call center. Every technician is licensed, bonded, and insured, and works here in the Treasure Valley.
How it works
1. You call and a real person answers — 24/7, no phone tree.
2. We send the nearest technician, and they call ahead before they arrive.
3. We run the camera the full length of the line and locate any blockage, crack, belly, or root intrusion, then explain exactly what we found.
When a Sewer Line Inspection Makes Sense
- Buying or selling a home with an older sewer lateral
- Recurring backups that a standard cleaning doesn't fully solve
- Multiple drains slowing down or gurgling around the same time
- Suspected tree root intrusion near an aging line
- Confirming a line is fully clear after a repair or major cleaning
- Routine condition check on a line older than 30-40 years
Why We Recommend This Before Digging
Caldwell, Boise, and Nampa's older neighborhoods run on a mix of clay and cast iron sewer laterals, and those materials crack and shift at the joints as they age. The irrigation canals and laterals running through the valley keep soil moisture — and root growth — active most of the year, which is exactly what pulls roots toward an aging pipe joint. A camera inspection tells us precisely where a line stands before we ever recommend repair, so you're never paying to dig up a section that didn't need it.

If the Camera Finds a Problem
When an inspection turns up damage, our sewer line repair team handles the fix directly — including trenchless options that avoid digging up the whole yard. If what we find is just a clog, our drain cleaning service clears it the same visit in most cases.

Frequently asked questions
What does a sewer line inspection actually show?
A waterproof camera on a cable runs the full length of your line while we watch a live video feed and record it, so we can see cracks, bellied sections, root intrusion, and blockages directly instead of guessing from symptoms.
Do I need a sewer line inspection before buying a house?
It's one of the few home-buying checks that catches a problem a general inspector can't see. An older sewer lateral that's fine on the surface can already be root-damaged or cracked underground, and that's a repair worth knowing about before closing, not after.
My drains are slow but they're not backing up — do I still need this?
A single slow fixture is usually a local clog. But when multiple drains in the house are slow at the same time, or a drain backs up when the washing machine runs, that points to the main line rather than one fixture, and a camera inspection is the fastest way to see what's actually happening down there.
Do you give me anything after the inspection?
Yes — we walk you through what the camera found in plain language, and if repair or cleaning is needed we give you a flat price in writing for that work. You're never left guessing what we saw or what it means.
Do you serve areas outside Caldwell?
We are based in Caldwell and work the entire Treasure Valley every day, with dedicated pages for sewer line inspection in Nampa, Boise, and Meridian.
