- Sewer line repair, lining and replacement, which are licensed trades done by pros who hold the license.
- Pressure testing and smoke testing, and the inspection of lateral lines not reachable from the cleanout, unless the pro lists them.

Before you book sewer line camera inspection
Quick things that save a trip. Tick them off as you go; none of it is required to book.
Find the cleanout
Look for a capped pipe near the house, in the yard, the basement or the crawlspace. Clear plants and debris from it, and tell the pro if you cannot find one.
Avoid heavy water use before the visit
Skip laundry and long showers right before the pro arrives so the line is not full during the run. The pro may ask you to flush a toilet to test flow.
Describe the symptoms
Which drains slow down, whether gurgling happens, and when backups started are all useful. Note any past clearings and what was found.
Share what you know about the line
The age of the home, past repairs, nearby trees and the pipe material give the pro a head start on what to look for.
Ask for the video
Confirm before you book what the pro provides, such as video, stills and a depth locate. A copy of the recording is useful for repair quotes and for a purchase.
Plan for a follow-up
If the camera finds a defect, you may want repair quotes. Keep the report so other pros can see exactly where the problem is without scoping again.
