Video Inspection

At Drain Pro of SC we believe that seeing is knowing.

While we can’t normally see your entire sewer line from the outside in, we can see it from the inside out. We are equipped with several types of specialized in-line video cameras which travel at great distances through the interior of your sewer or drain line, not dissimilar to surgical cameras used in medicine. These cameras are fed through your sewer line in order to examine the condition of the interior walls of your line.

By examining the interior walls of your line we can be sure that the structure of the line is not compromised by root incursion, natural corrosion or joint shifting. Not only can these factors cause blockage, they can also cause leaching of waste into the soil, foundation of your house, potentially causing much damage.

Whenever possible we try to avoid unnecessary service calls at additional expense. For this reason, we are currently offering video inspections of your sewer line at no charge when accompanied by a service. This will help to ensure your sewer line integrity moving forward, or alert you to any long term issues that may arise. Video camera inspections are also reasonably priced as a stand alone service.

Call Drain Pro SC to schedule a video inspection of your drain line today.
