Cost-effective and accurate drain diagnosis

Camera inspection services in Delta, Surrey, Richmond and White Rock

A camera inspection is one of the best ways to find out what is happening inside your drains or sewer line without digging up your yard or opening walls. Using a specialized waterproof camera, our technicians can inspect your plumbing from the inside and locate the cause of the problem.

At Acorn Service Group, we provide drain camera inspections for homes in Tsawwassen, Ladner, North Delta, Richmond, White Rock, Surrey, and nearby areas. Whether you are dealing with repeat clogs, slow drains, sewer smells, or a backup, a camera inspection helps us find the issue and explain your best options.

Drain camera inspections are non-invasive, efficient, and accurate. They allow us to see problems such as:

  • Tree root intrusion
  • Broken pipe sections
  • Grease buildup
  • Bellied or sagging lines
  • Blockages
  • Damaged sewer piping

Once we know what is going on, we can recommend the right next step instead of guessing.

Our plumbers may recommend a camera inspection before major drain or sewer work so we can understand the problem before starting. We also use camera inspections after hydro jetting to confirm the line is clear and show the condition of the pipe.

Camera inspections can also be helpful when buying a home. A sewer line can look fine from the outside, but hidden damage underground can lead to costly repairs later. Having the line inspected gives you more information before making a decision.

If hydro jetting or sewer repair is needed, the cost of the camera inspection may be applied toward the work. Our goal is to give you clear answers, honest options, and a repair plan that makes sense for your home.

Camera Inspection FAQ

When should I book a drain camera inspection?
You should book a camera inspection if you have repeat drain clogs, sewer smells, slow drains, gurgling toilets, or water backing up. It is also a good idea before buying a home.
What can a camera inspection find?
A camera inspection can help find tree roots, cracks, broken pipe, blockages, grease buildup, low spots in the line, and other sewer or drain issues.
Is a camera inspection messy?
No. A camera inspection is non-invasive. The camera is sent through an existing drain or sewer access point, so there is usually no digging required.
Can a camera inspection help avoid unnecessary digging?
Yes. A camera inspection helps locate the issue inside the pipe with a tool called a locator, so we can better understand exactly where the problem is before recommending drain or sewer work. 
Can I see the video from the inspection?
Yes. Our technician can show you what the camera sees and explain what is happening inside the pipe in simple terms.
