About this service
What Sewer Camera Inspection in Marietta, Georgia Really Shows You
A sewer camera inspection in Marietta, Georgia pushes a waterproof camera head through your cleanout and down the main line. The camera sends live video to a monitor, and a sewer line locator transmitter marks the depth and position of every defect above ground. We see tree root intrusion, offset pipe joints, cracked clay tile sewer pipe, and sagging or bellied pipe as they happen. You watch the same screen we do, so nothing gets lost in translation.
Marietta homeowners call us for this service for three reasons: a recurring sewer backup that keeps coming back, a home purchase that needs a sewer scope before buying a home Marietta GA, or a sewer line that has never been inspected since the house was built. Older neighborhoods around Marietta Square and Whitlock Avenue Historic District still have clay tile and Orangeburg pipe in the ground, and those materials fail in predictable ways. A camera inspection tells you which problem you actually have.

What's included
What Our Sewer Camera Inspection Includes
Every inspection covers the full main line from the cleanout to the city tap or septic tank. Here is what is standard on every job, and what we only add when your line actually needs it.
Defect Location Marking
Any crack, root cluster, or bellied section gets marked above ground with paint or a flag using a sewer line locator transmitter. That mark tells the dig crew exactly where to cut, which keeps the trench small.
Recorded Video and Summary
You receive the video file and a written summary with footage markers the same day. It is formatted so a real estate agent, insurance adjuster, or warranty company can use it without calling us for clarification.
On-Site Findings Review
We replay the footage with you on site and explain what each defect means for your pipe material and your budget. You leave the appointment knowing exactly what you have and what it will take to fix it.
Repair Options With Pricing
If the line needs work, we quote the repair options the footage supports: hydro jetting, spot repair, trenchless sewer repair, or replacement. You get real prices before anyone picks up a shovel.
How it works
Our Sewer Camera Inspection Process
We find your main cleanout, or install one if the house does not have a working access point. Broken cleanout covers and buried cleanouts are common in older Marietta homes, and we handle both before the camera ever goes in the ground. This step usually takes 15 to 30 minutes.
We feed the push rod camera through the line at a steady pace, watching the monitor for cracks, roots, and standing water. A sewer line locator transmitter lets us mark the depth and position of anything we find. Expect 30 to 60 minutes for a typical 60 to 100 foot residential line.
We record the full run and call out footage markers as we go, so you can jump straight to the defect later. Any problem area gets a paint mark or flag in the yard. You get the video file and a written summary the same day.
We sit down with you and replay the footage, explaining what each defect means in plain terms. If the line is clean, we tell you that and you owe nothing more than the inspection. If it is not, you get repair options with real prices before we touch a shovel.
Depending on what the camera shows, we may recommend hydro jetting, a spot repair, trenchless sewer repair, or full replacement. We explain why each option fits your pipe material and your budget. No pressure, no upsell, just the repair the footage supports.
STEP 01Locate the Cleanout
We find your main cleanout, or install one if the house does not have a working access point. Broken cleanout covers and buried cleanouts are common in older Marietta homes, and we handle both before the camera ever goes in the ground. This step usually takes 15 to 30 minutes.
Tools & methods
Tools and Methods We Use
RIDGID Push Rod Camera
Our primary inspection camera for residential lines up to 200 feet. Self-leveling head keeps the picture upright so defects are easy to read on the monitor.
Spartan Tool Camera System
Backup and commercial camera with a larger head for bigger lines. We use it on 6-inch and 8-inch commercial sewer mains where detail matters.
Sewer Line Locator Transmitter
Sends a signal from the camera head so we can mark the pipe's path and depth above ground. This is what keeps excavation precise and your yard intact.
Hydro Jetter
Cleans grease and soft roots from the line after inspection. We re-inspect after jetting so you can see the pipe is clear on video.
Drain Snake Auger
Cuts through roots and soft blockages when the camera shows a clear path. Used before inspection on badly blocked lines so the camera can pass.
Mini Excavator
Digs the trench for spot repairs and replacements once the camera has marked the exact defect location. Keeps the excavation footprint small.
Real results
Before and after.
Sewer Camera Inspection
Root-Choked Clay Line in Historic Marietta
A homeowner near Marietta Square had backed up twice in six months. Snaking cleared it each time, but the clog returned. The camera showed a dense root cluster 45 feet out, with roots wrapping the joint.
After: We cut the roots, hydro jetted the line, and treated the pipe to slow regrowth. Post-inspection footage showed a clean pipe with no root material. The homeowner has gone 14 months without a backup.

Sewer Problems We Find With a Camera in Marietta
Most sewer calls come down to one of a handful of physical failures. A camera inspection tells you which one you have, and that changes the repair and the price.
Ask a pro →Recurring clogs that keep coming back every few months
We run the camera to find the actual catch point. If it is roots, we cut them and treat the pipe. If it is a belly, we repair that section. You stop paying for the same clog twice.
Slow drains throughout the whole house
A camera inspection shows whether the main line is partially blocked by grease, roots, or scale. We clean it with hydro jetting and re-inspect so you can see the line is clear before we leave.
Sewage smell in the yard or around the cleanout
The camera pinpoints the break or separated joint, and the locator marks it above ground. We repair the section with a spot repair or coupling, then re-inspect to confirm the seal.
Buying a home and not knowing the sewer's condition
Our real estate sewer inspection gives you recorded footage and a written summary before you close. You can negotiate the repair or walk away with real information instead of a guess.
