What Happens
A provider may access the line through a cleanout, move a camera through the pipe, and record or describe the findings. Locating equipment can help mark the route and approximate defect position. A complete blockage may need cleaning before inspection.
Interpret the Findings
The inspection may reveal roots, scale, cracks, offsets, separated joints, standing water, or collapse. It may not show defects beyond an obstruction or explain every drainage symptom. Ask where the camera entered, how far it traveled, and what was directly observed.
