Drain and Plumbing Service Bothell WA A video camera pipe inspection is useful for recurring clogs, slow drains, sewer odors and before buying a property. It is especially helpful on older systems, including established neighborhoods such as Downtown Bothell and Westhill, where aging clay or cast iron pipe benefits from a closer look.
We inspect both residential and commercial properties, and the findings can lead straight into the right fix: drain cleaning, hydro jetting or trenchless repair.
A sewer scope, as home buyers often call it, checks the private sewer line before you purchase. Older homes and homes with mature trees near the sewer line are the most common reasons to look, because the line is hidden and repairs can be expensive to discover after closing.
A second pass after a cleaning confirms the line is clear and shows whether buildup, roots or damage remain. Learn more about tree roots in sewer lines.
