Sewer Camera Inspection NJ

Our sewer camera inspection service is one of the most accurate and advanced ways to evaluate the condition of your sewer system. We use a high-resolution plumbing camera to view the inside of your sewer line in real time, identifying cracks, tree root intrusion, sludge buildup, pipe corrosion, offsets, and blockages. This video pipe inspection is non-invasive, effective, and essential for diagnosing sewer problems without excavation.

Sewer Line Inspection NJ

When performing a sewer line inspection, we focus on the entire main sewer lateral — the underground pipe that connects your home’s plumbing system to the city sewer. Using a flexible, waterproof pipe camera, we detect common issues like collapsed sewer lines, pipe bellies, misaligned joints, and root intrusion. Every inspection includes a detailed sewer inspection report that pinpoints the depth and location of all findings, helping you avoid costly surprises.

Sewer Scope Inspection NJ

A sewer scope inspection gives homeowners and buyers a comprehensive look inside their sewer system. We insert a sewer pipe video camera through a cleanout or drain to visually inspect the entire line. Our inspection includes a narrated video, timestamped footage of any defects, and a summary report with professional observations and repair recommendations. This service is highly recommended for real estate sewer inspections and pre-purchase sewer evaluations.

Drain Line Camera Inspection NJ

For properties experiencing slow drains, gurgling pipes, or unexplained sewer smells, our drain camera inspection identifies exactly what's going on inside your interior drainage system. We inspect kitchen sinks, bathroom lines, laundry drains, and basement floor drains to detect grease buildup, foreign objects, corroded pipes, and improper slope or flow. Our goal is to find the cause fast — without damaging your home.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sewer Inspections in New Jersey

Do I need a sewer inspection when buying a home in New Jersey?
Yes, you absolutely do. A sewer inspection before buying a house is one of the smartest decisions a homebuyer can make. Many homes in New Jersey have old sewer lines made of clay or cast iron, which are prone to cracks, collapses, or tree root intrusion. A sewer camera home inspection helps uncover these hidden issues before closing, protecting you from surprise repairs that often cost thousands of dollars.
What does a sewer scope inspection show?
A professional sewer scope inspection reveals the internal condition of your entire underground sewer pipe. Our camera captures everything in high-definition, including sludge buildup, pipe cracks, grease blockages, corroded sections, misaligned joints, and collapsed areas. It provides a visual diagnosis that no traditional plumbing test can match.
How long does a sewer camera inspection take?
Most sewer camera inspections in New Jersey take between 30 to 60 minutes. This depends on the length of the pipe, the accessibility of your cleanout, and any obstructions encountered during the inspection. After the inspection, we provide a digital video file, timestamped footage, and a written summary — typically within the same day.
How much does a sewer scope inspection cost in New Jersey?
The cost of a sewer camera inspection usually ranges from $300 to $500 in New Jersey, depending on property type and access. At NJ Sewer Inspector, we offer flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees, and every inspection includes the video report, summary of findings, and location-marked footage.
Is a sewer inspection necessary if the home is connected to public sewer?
Yes — even if your property is connected to the municipal sewer system, you are still responsible for the sewer lateral, which runs from your home to the city main. This section is often where tree root intrusion, pipe deterioration, or sludge accumulation occurs. A main sewer line inspection ensures you don’t inherit a buried problem.
Who performs sewer camera inspections in NJ?
At NJ Sewer Inspector, our team consists of certified sewer inspection specialists who are trained specifically in plumbing video inspection, pipe diagnostics, and real estate sewer evaluations. We don’t do repairs — we only inspect — so you can trust our findings are 100% unbiased.
What are the signs you need a sewer inspection?
Common signs include slow drains, foul sewer odors, gurgling noises, or recurring backups. You should also schedule an inspection if your home is older, if you're noticing wet patches in the yard, or if you're planning a home purchase or renovation. These symptoms could point to serious underground issues that only a video pipe inspection can confirm.
What should I expect from a sewer scope inspection process?
Expect a smooth, non-invasive process. First, we locate the best access point (usually a cleanout). Then, we insert our HD sewer camera into the pipe and guide it through your entire sewer lateral, monitoring the live feed. We document issues like collapsed sections, cracks, or blockages, and provide a video pipeline inspection report you can keep and share with contractors or real estate agents.
