What Does a Sewer Line Inspection Entail for Homeowners?

A sewer line inspection for homeowners is a camera-based evaluation of your main drain that records pipe condition, pinpoints defects, and maps their exact locations. Most inspections are scheduled after slow drains or backups, or before closing on a home.

In a typical visit, a licensed plumber accesses the line, feeds a video scope through the pipe, and documents findings with clear next steps; in the Littleton area, our restoration team often coordinates cleanup after plumbers complete their diagnostic inspection.

What inspectors usually deliver:

  • Run a camera from a cleanout to the street main and note distances.
  • Locate the camera head above ground to mark problem spots.
  • Identify issues like roots, offsets, bellies, corrosion, or collapse.
  • Provide a video/report with repair, lining, or monitoring recommendations.

If you suspect a blockage or smell sewage, stop running water and call a licensed plumber before damage spreads. <br/> Updated: 2026-05-11 <br/> Need help in Littleton, CO? Call (303) 237-4406 or book online.
