Sewer Camera Inspections
in the Bay Area
Sewer cameras offer cost-effective, quick, and non-invasive inspections
If you have a sewer backup or leak, NS Sewer Piping recommends the use of an inspection camera to quickly dignose the problem.
In the past, plumbers had to resort to digging to locate leaks and cracks in pipes. While effective, this approach often resulted in significant property damage, such as destroyed driveways and damaged basement floors, leaving homeowners with additional repair needs.
Our modern sewer inspection cameras provide precise, real-time insights into pipe conditions, allowing for accurate problem identification. This approach minimizes the need for disruptive excavation at your property and speeds up the repair process. It’s also ideal for preventive maintenance, and the captured footage serves as valuable documentation for your future reference.

How do sewer cameras work?
A sewer camera, mounted on a flexible rod, easily navigates through pipes, providing live, clear footage of their interior to the NS Sewer Piping plumbers. This advanced tool illuminates dark areas and precisely locates issues in your sewer lines which enables us to get quick and accurate diagnostics. It’s great for property owners because it’s a non-invasive solution that avoids the need for major digging.
When is sewer repair needed after a camera inspection?
Sewer repair becomes necessary when grease, household cleaners, and debris accumulate, causing blockages. Aging infrastructure, wear and tear, broken or poorly installed components, failures in backflow prevention devices, and tree root intrusions also contribute to the need for timely and effective sewer maintenance and repair.
