Video Pipe Inspection
Professional video pipe inspection using CCTV cameras to visually inspect underground water and sewer lines. Our inspection services identify pipe damage, root intrusion, and leak sources.
How Video Pipe Inspection Works
Video pipe inspection uses specialized waterproof cameras mounted on flexible cables or self-propelled crawlers to travel through pipes and transmit real-time video. This allows direct visual inspection of pipe interiors, revealing damage, blockages, and conditions that cause leaks.
Our technicians can see cracks, holes, joint separations, corrosion, root intrusion, and other problems that would otherwise require excavation to discover. Distance markers and locating transmitters allow precise identification of problem locations.
Types of Video Equipment
Push Cameras
Flexible cable-mounted cameras for pipes 2-6 inches - ideal for residential service lines
Crawler Cameras
Self-propelled robots for larger pipes - pan/tilt cameras for detailed inspection
Lateral Launch
Cameras that can enter branch lines from main pipes
Sonde Locating
Transmitters that mark camera position from above ground
What Video Inspection Reveals
- •Cracks & Fractures: Visible breaks in pipe walls allowing water infiltration or exfiltration
- •Joint Separations: Pipe connections that have pulled apart creating leak points
- •Root Intrusion: Tree roots entering pipes through joints or cracks
- •Corrosion: Internal pipe deterioration in metal pipes
- •Blockages: Debris, scale buildup, or collapsed sections
- •Infiltration: Groundwater entering through defects (visible in sewers)
