What is a Crawler Camera Inspection?
A Crawler Camera Inspection uses a specialized camera mounted on a wheeled device to inspect sewer lines. The camera is inserted into the sewer line and can navigate through pipes, providing a comprehensive view of the condition of the pipe and any potential blockages or damage. This enables accurate diagnosis and repair. This system is versatile, agile, and efficient, capable of crawling up to 1,640 feet and inspecting lines from 6 to 96 inches in diameter.
What are the Benefits of a Crawler Camera Inspection?
Benefits of Crawler Camera Inspection:
​
Reducing Overall Cost of Pipe Repair: A Drain Crawler Camera Inspection can help to reduce the overall cost of a pipe repair by providing a proper diagnosis of the problem. For instance, if you have a sewer line clog, the camera inspection reveals exactly where it is and what caused it. This information helps us remove the clog efficiently, saving time and significantly lowering repair costs.
Minimizing Property Damage from Trenching: A Drain Crawler Camera Inspection can greatly reduce damage to your property from trenching. In the past, the only way to find the exact location of a leak was to dig up (or “trench”) the yard. Not only was this method time-consuming and messy, but it was also costly. Restoring a trenched yard can raise the cost of a repair by thousands of dollars. Fortunately, our technicians can use the crawler camera system to find leaks and clogs without disturbing your property.
Identifying Existing Problems: During a Drain Crawler Camera Inspection, our technicians can catch potential problems such as clogs or leaks before they become major issues. If a potential problem is detected, the technician can correct it on the spot or recommend preventive measures to avoid escalation. Prevention saves you money and spares you the hassle of major sewer issues later.
Proof of Sewer System Condition: If you’re buying a property, hiring our technicians for a Drain Crawler Camera Inspection is one of the best things you can do—it gives you a firsthand look at the sewer system’s condition. This helps you avoid being blindsided by serious unknown issues and stay informed about potential problems.
Finding Lost Valuables: If you’ve lost something valuable down the drain, there’s a chance it’s lodged in the lines. If it hasn’t already washed away, the technician may be able to locate it via a Drain Crawler Camera Inspection and retrieve it.
