Top 5 Reasons You Might Need a Sewer Camera Inspection in Edmonton

 Not all plumbing problems are visible — and guessing can lead to expensive, unnecessary repairs. That’s why a *sewer camera inspection* is one of the smartest things Edmonton homeowners can do when they suspect hidden issues underground. With real-time video footage, you can see exactly what’s going on inside your pipes — without digging up your yard.

At *Instarooter*, we offer fast, accurate, and affordable sewer camera inspections throughout Edmonton and surrounding areas. Here are the top 5 reasons you might need one — and why they could save you thousands.

### 1. Recurring Drain Problems

If your drains keep clogging no matter how many times you snake or clean them, there’s likely a deeper issue in your main sewer line. A camera inspection can reveal whether the problem is grease buildup, pipe misalignment, root intrusion, or even a collapsed section.

Instead of guessing, we identify the exact cause and recommend the most effective solution.

### 2. You’re Buying or Selling a Home

A sewer camera inspection is essential for real estate transactions — especially in older Edmonton neighborhoods like Garneau, Ritchie, or Westmount. A cracked or blocked sewer line could cost thousands to repair and derail a deal.

Our inspection provides peace of mind for both buyers and sellers, and many realtors recommend it as part of the due diligence process.

### 3. You Smell Sewage or Notice Lawn Patches

If you smell sewage inside your home or notice unusually lush, soggy, or sunken spots in your yard, there’s a chance your sewer line is leaking underground. A sewer scope lets us check for cracks, separations, or root intrusions before the damage spreads.

### 4. You’re Experiencing Sewer Backups

Sewage backing up into your basement or floor drain is a serious issue. A sewer camera inspection pinpoints where the obstruction is and whether the pipe is broken, blocked, or collapsed.

Once we know the problem, we can move forward with proper repair — fast.

### 5. You Have an Older Home or Outdated Pipes

Homes in Edmonton built before the 1980s often have clay, cast iron, or Orangeburg sewer pipes — materials that degrade over time. Even if you don’t have an active problem, it’s smart to schedule a preventive inspection to identify early warning signs.

Catching an issue early can save you thousands in excavation and replacement costs.
