Video Camera Sewer Inspections in Naperville, IL

In Naperville, the line from your house to the main is yours to maintain. A camera inspection shows you its real condition, from roots to sags, before you spend money on it. You watch live, and we mark every problem by distance. From our office on Main Street.

Not Just for Problems

Common Reasons to Get a Sewer Camera Inspection

Why Naperville homeowners book one:

Buying a Home

You take over the service line at closing. A home inspection doesn't look inside it.

Roots Keep Coming Back

The camera shows where they're getting in, so you can fix the entry point.

Before Finishing the Basement

Check the line before a new basement bathroom ties into it.

Retrieving Valuables

Dropping a ring down the drain doesn't mean it's lost forever. Our camera can help you locate jewelry and other valuables inside the line.

Local Knowledge

What the Camera Finds in Naperville Sewer Lines

About 8 in 10 Naperville homes were built between 1970 and 2009. Older homes near downtown add clay to the mix.

Roots at Joints and Fittings

The city's number one cause of backups, and our number one finding. The camera shows exactly which joint they're coming through.

Clay Joints Near Downtown

Older vitrified clay laterals with open joints that let in roots and groundwater.

Sags in Newer Lines

Low spots in PVC where the soil settled, collecting water and solids.

Distance to the Main

We follow the line to the city main and mark the distance, so you know what's yours and where the problem is.

Before You Finish the Basement

Many Naperville basements get finished years after the house is built. A camera look at the line before the drywall goes up costs far less than fixing a backup in a brand-new space.

No Digging Required

How a Sewer Camera Inspection Works

Here's the process:

1. Through the Cleanout

No digging or cutting.

2. Live Video

You watch with us as the camera travels the line.

3. Marked and Saved

Every issue marked by distance, and a copy of the video for you.

Camera Inspection Questions From Naperville Homeowners
