Sewer Camera Inspection · Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Sewer Camera Inspection in Cedar Rapids, Iowa

If you are buying a house in Cedar Rapids that was built before the 1980s, a sewer scope is the cheapest inspection you will ever pay for. A standard home inspection does not include it, and a failed line under a mature front yard is a five-figure surprise a month after closing.

Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

When to call us in Cedar Rapids

  • You are buying an older home and want the line checked
  • Repeat main line backups with no obvious cause
  • A contractor has quoted a dig and you want a second opinion
  • Slow drains throughout the house rather than at one fixture
  • Mature trees between the house and the street
  • You are about to finish a basement and want to know first

What the visit covers

  • Full run from the cleanout to the city main where accessible
  • Recorded video you keep, plus a plain-language summary
  • Any defect located and depth-marked on the surface
  • Pipe material and approximate age identified
  • Findings explained on the screen while we are there
  • No pressure - plenty of inspections end with 'it is fine'

Grease is the leading cause of kitchen line calls

Most of the kitchen drains we cable in Cedar Rapids are lined with cooled grease rather than blocked by any single object. It goes down warm and sets on the pipe wall a few feet along. Once that layer is thick enough, one bowl of rice finishes the job.

Cedar Rapids customers on our sewer camera inspection work

★★★★★

Straightforward people. Told me the repair on my eleven year old heater would work but probably only buy me a year, gave me both prices, and let me decide. No pressure either way.

Nadia F. · Cedar Rapids, IA

★★★★★

Second opinion on a quote to dig up our whole sewer line. They cameraed it, found one bad section, and lined it for a fraction. Saved us thousands.

Verity P. · Marion, IA

★★★★★

Fair price, showed up when they said, and did not leave a mess. I do not know how to review a plumber more highly than that.

Sewer Camera Inspection in Cedar Rapids: common questions

How much is a sewer camera inspection in Cedar Rapids?

It is a flat fee for a standard residential run in Cedar Rapids, quoted when you book. If we have to clear a blockage before the camera can pass, we tell you the added cost before doing it.

Should I get a sewer scope before buying a house?

On any Cedar Rapids home built before about 1980, we would. Home inspections do not cover the buried line, and it is the single most expensive thing that can be quietly wrong with a house.

Can you tell how deep the problem is?

Yes. The camera head carries a sonde we track from the surface, so we can mark the location and depth of a defect on your lawn with paint before anyone digs.

Do I get a copy of the video?

Always. You get the footage and a written summary, which is exactly what you need for a repair quote, a seller negotiation or an insurance claim.

Do you serve the smaller towns around Cedar Rapids?

We do. Our Cedar Rapids coverage extends through the surrounding communities, and we run across the whole state, so being outside the city limits does not mean waiting longer or paying a travel premium.
