Sewer Camera Inspection in Columbia, TN
A push camera run down the lateral to locate the fault and its depth before anyone quotes a repair.
A camera inspection sends a self-levelling camera down the cleanout to record the condition of the line and locate faults. A sonde in the camera head lets the technician mark the depth and position of the problem on the surface.
This is the step that decides everything else. Whether a line can be lined, must be burst, or only needs a spot repair is not something anyone can quote responsibly without seeing it. Be skeptical of a replacement quote issued without an inspection.
Typical cost: $150 - $500, often credited against the repair
When sewer camera inspection is the right call
- Before buying a home built before roughly 1980

- After a second backup on the same line

Common questions
Should I get a sewer scope before buying a house?
For an older home it is one of the cheapest pieces of information you can buy. A lateral replacement can run five figures and is not usually covered by a standard inspection.
Is the inspection fee credited toward the repair?
Many contractors credit it if you proceed with them. Ask before scheduling, and get the answer in writing.
