Drain Camera Inspection & Sewer Line Diagnosis in Vancouver, Lower Mainland, Fraser Valley & Anmore
At Gator Plumbing & Drainage Ltd., we provide professional drain camera inspection in Vancouver, the Lower Mainland, the Fraser Valley, and Anmore. Our licensed plumbers use advanced video camera technology to locate clogs, leaks, root intrusions, and damaged pipes with precision. From Vancouver condos to Anmore homes and Fraser Valley businesses, we give you a clear view of your drains without unnecessary digging.
Why Choose a Drain Camera Inspection?
Many plumbing issues are hidden underground or behind walls, making them difficult to diagnose. Traditional methods often involve unnecessary excavation, trial-and-error, and expensive repairs. With a video drain inspection, we can:
- Pinpoint clogs, cracks, and pipe damage without digging
- Identify tree root intrusions and collapsed lines
- Detect leaks before they cause structural damage
- Inspect perimeter drains, storm drains, and sewer laterals
- Provide video proof and detailed reports for your records
How Our Sewer Line Camera Inspections Work
- Accessing the Line – We insert a high-resolution camera into the drain or sewer line through an access point
- Live Video Feed – The camera sends back real-time footage to our monitors, allowing us to see inside your pipes
- Diagnosis – Our plumbers locate blockages, leaks, or damaged areas with precision
- Recommendations – We provide you with a full explanation of the problem and solutions such as hydro-jetting, pipe repairs, or replacements
- Video Report – Upon request, you’ll receive a copy of the inspection footage for insurance claims, property sales, or personal records
