Are you experiencing slow drains, recurring backups, or foul odors from your plumbing system? These common issues often signal problems hidden deep within your sewer lines. At Local Plumbers 4 U, we use advanced sewer line camera inspection technology to diagnose these problems without invasive digging or guesswork. Our professional technicians can identify blockages, cracks, root intrusions, and other issues with pinpoint accuracy, saving you time and money on unnecessary repairs.
What Is a Sewer Line Camera Inspection?
Our technicians use high-resolution cameras to inspect your sewer lines
A sewer line camera inspection is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure that uses specialized waterproof cameras to visually examine the interior of your sewer pipes. This advanced technology allows our plumbers to see exactly what’s happening inside your plumbing system without destructive digging or guesswork.
The inspection process involves inserting a flexible rod with a high-definition camera attached to its tip into your sewer lines. This camera transmits real-time video footage to a monitor, allowing our technicians to thoroughly examine your pipes from the inside. The camera can travel through pipes ranging from 2 to 36 inches in diameter, navigating through bends and turns to provide a comprehensive view of your entire sewer system.

How Our Sewer Camera Inspection Process Works
1. Initial Assessment
Our technician arrives at your Corona home and discusses your plumbing concerns. We identify the best access point to your sewer system, typically through a cleanout access port.
2. Camera Insertion
We insert our specialized waterproof camera attached to a flexible cable into your sewer line. The camera includes bright LED lights that illuminate the pipe interior for clear visibility.
3. Real-Time Inspection
As the camera moves through your pipes, we monitor the video feed in real-time, identifying any issues such as cracks, blockages, root intrusions, or pipe collapses.
4. Problem Location
Our equipment includes a locating device that pinpoints the exact location and depth of any problems found, eliminating guesswork for repairs.
5. Documentation
We record the entire inspection, providing you with video evidence of any issues discovered and allowing you to see exactly what we see.
6. Solution Recommendation
Based on our findings, we provide you with clear repair options and recommendations, along with transparent pricing for any necessary services.
The entire sewer camera inspection process typically takes between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the complexity of your plumbing system and the issues discovered. Our Corona-based technicians explain everything they find in simple, easy-to-understand terms.
Benefits of Professional Sewer Line Camera Inspection
Accurate Diagnosis
Unlike traditional methods that rely on guesswork, our camera inspections provide visual confirmation of exactly what’s happening inside your pipes. This allows us to identify the precise location and nature of any issues, from minor blockages to serious pipe damage.
Non-Invasive Solution
Traditional plumbing diagnostics often required extensive digging and property disruption. Our camera inspection technology eliminates the need for destructive methods, preserving your Corona property’s landscaping and structures while still providing comprehensive results.
Cost-Effective
By precisely identifying the location and extent of plumbing problems, we eliminate unnecessary work and focus only on the areas that truly need attention. This targeted approach saves you money on repairs and prevents future issues through early detection.
Preventative Maintenance
Regular sewer camera inspections can identify potential problems before they become major issues. Catching small cracks, minor root intrusions, or early-stage blockages can prevent expensive emergency repairs down the line.

Common Issues Detected During Sewer Camera Inspections
Tree Root Intrusion
One of the most common issues we find in Corona homes is tree root infiltration. Roots naturally seek water sources and can penetrate even tiny cracks in your sewer lines, creating blockages and causing pipe damage over time.
Pipe Cracks and Breaks
Our cameras can detect cracks, fractures, or complete breaks in your sewer pipes. These issues often result from ground shifting, aging pipes, or external pressure, and can lead to leaks and property damage if left unaddressed.
Blockages and Buildup
Grease, debris, household items, and mineral buildup can create significant blockages in your sewer lines. Our camera inspection clearly identifies the type and location of these obstructions for targeted removal.
Pipe Bellying
When a section of pipe sinks due to ground settling, it creates a “belly” or low spot where waste and water can collect. This often leads to recurring backups and slow drains in Corona homes.
Offset Pipes
Misaligned pipe connections can trap debris and restrict flow. Our camera inspection can identify these offsets, which often occur due to improper installation or ground movement common in Southern California.
Corrosion and Deterioration
Older pipes, especially cast iron ones found in many Corona neighborhoods, can corrode over time. Our camera inspection reveals the extent of deterioration and helps determine if repair or replacement is necessary.

At Local Plumbers 4 U, we offer competitive pricing and can provide an exact quote after understanding your specific situation.

How long does a sewer camera inspection take?
A typical sewer line camera inspection takes between 30 minutes to one hour to complete. The exact time depends on the length and complexity of your sewer system, the number of access points, and the issues discovered during the inspection. Our Corona technicians work efficiently to minimize disruption to your day.
Can a sewer camera inspection detect leaks?
While a sewer camera can identify cracks, breaks, and holes in pipes that may cause leaks, it cannot directly detect water leaking out of the pipe since the camera only views the inside of the pipe. However, our experienced technicians can often identify signs that indicate leaks, such as water infiltration, pipe damage, or unusual conditions. For comprehensive leak detection, we may recommend additional specialized testing methods.
How often should I have my sewer lines inspected?
For most Corona homeowners, we recommend a sewer line camera inspection every 2-3 years as preventative maintenance. However, homes with mature trees near sewer lines, older plumbing systems (20+ years), or previous sewer issues may benefit from more frequent inspections, typically annually. If you’re experiencing recurring drain problems, scheduling an inspection promptly is advisable regardless of when your last one occurred.
Should I get a sewer camera inspection when buying a home in Corona?
Absolutely. A sewer camera inspection is a valuable addition to your home inspection process when purchasing property in Corona. Standard home inspections typically don’t include thorough sewer line evaluations. Discovering sewer line issues after purchase can lead to unexpected expenses ranging from ,000 to ,000 depending on the severity. Our pre-purchase sewer inspections provide peace of mind and potential negotiation leverage.
