A professional plumbing inspection with a camera allows us to see exactly what's causing your slow drain. In Philly homes, it's often a buildup of cooking grease that hardens in the pipes. The inspection confirms the location and severity of the clog, so we can use the most effective method to clear it completely, preventing a future full blockage.

Many Philadelphia neighborhoods have older plumbing systems with narrower pipes that are more susceptible to blockages. When cooking oils, fats, and grease from iconic Philly dishes are washed down the drain, they cool and solidify inside these pipes, creating a stubborn, cement-like clog that standard drain cleaners can't handle.

Our thorough inspection goes beyond just looking for clogs. We use a camera to check for cracks, bellies (sags), root intrusion, and corrosion in your pipes—common issues in our local soil and with aging infrastructure. Catching these problems early during an inspection can save you from a major repair or sewer backup down the line.
