Drain video inspections

Like x-ray vision for plumbers. GoPro Plumbers are expert operators of a technologically advanced snake camera system for plumbing diagnostics and the jetting systems to clear grease, debris and build-up.

The case for a camera

Why would I need my drain inspected?

Peace of mind

Problems with your sewer line can be costly to repair, even more so if they're caught late.

Fix and prevent problems

With advanced detection comes the opportunity to fix or even prevent a future problem at the same time.

Diagnose without digging

Sewer lines are vital to your home but difficult to access. A camera inspection is less intrusive and can make it easier to narrow the field of repair.

Renovation planning

Our camera system lets us see the depth of the sewer pipe below a concrete floor, helpful when adding plumbing in a basement for bathroom and laundry drains.

Signs you may have a sewer line problem

  • Odours or slow drains
  • Unexpected increases in your water bill
  • An identified water main problem

What a video inspection can reveal

  • Clogs and leaks
