When a Camera Is Worth It
A camera answers the question a cable can't: why does this drain keep acting up?
The Clog Keeps Coming Back
A drain that clogs again after snaking has something in the line. The camera shows whether it's buildup, roots, debris or damage.
A Drain Slowed Down After a Remodel
Construction debris washed into a line can sit there and catch everything behind it. We've found it on camera.
Something Went Down That Shouldn't Have
An object lodged in the pipe shows up clearly on camera, so we know exactly where it sits before going after it.
A Floor Drain or Toilet Line Backs Up
The camera follows the line past the fixture and shows where the blockage sits and what it's made of.
You Want to Know Before You Spend
Before a repair or a hydro jetting job, the footage shows whether it's needed and where.
What the Camera Shows You
The camera head rides on a push cable fed into the line through a cleanout, a drain opening or the toilet flange. Your technician watches the live picture on a monitor, and you can watch with them.
A drain line runs inside the house from a fixture to the main line. For the main line out to the street or septic tank, see sewer camera inspection.

What Customers Said About Drain Camera Inspection
Google reviews that mention this job, quoted word for word.
During our kitchen renovation, we encountered a setback due to the new sink not lining up with the existing drain bringing the entire project to a halt. It had also been draining pretty slowly the past few months (requiring regular use of DrainO) so we called Clog Heroes. Jessy came out the same day to save the day! She displayed the utmost professionalism, letting us know all of our options, some of which I wasn't even aware of. We opted for the drain cleaning service including the camera and hydro jetter machine since the drain was already open. The transformation was astonishing! The grease build up was much worse that I ever imagined from years of use. Now every drain in the house flows as quickly as when we first built the house. To streamline future maintenance and address potential clogs, Jessy installed a clean-out at the kitchen sink while she was in there. What sets Clog Heroes apart is their genuine professionalism, honest feedback, transparent pricing, and the absence of pushy sales tactics. I also really appreciated the technician's thorough explanation of all options, leaving the decision-making entirely in our hands. Without a doubt, Clog Heroes will forever be our go-to. Absolutely one of the best contractors in the business. Don't bother looking any further if you need help. It's never a good situation if you do, and you don't want to find out in the middle of said situation that you called the wrong company. Clog Heroes will take good care of you - they sure did for me. Thank you Clog Heroes!!!!

What's the Difference Between a Drain and a Sewer Camera Inspection?
A drain camera inspection looks at the lines inside the house, from fixtures to the main. A sewer camera inspection looks at the main line from the house out to the street or septic tank. That's the one homebuyers need.
Can You Camera a Vent Pipe?
Yes, from the attic. We don't go on the roof. We need attic access, then we cut into the vent pipe, run the camera and repair the pipe when we're done.
Do I Have to Pull a Toilet for the Camera?
Sometimes. The camera goes in through the closest access point: a cleanout, a drain opening or the toilet flange. Your technician tells you before anything comes off. Pulling a toilet adds $150.
