A Look Inside Your Sewer Before You Decide
A sewer camera inspection Chester PA owners book sends a small waterproof camera through your sewer line to show roots, cracks, sags and breaks. We mark the exact spot and depth on the ground and give you the video. It is the smart first step before buying an older Chester home or paying for a dig.

What Your Camera Visit Includes
Each visit gives you a clear picture of the pipe from the house to the street.
- The camera run. A push camera with a recorder travels from the cleanout to the street connection.
- Recorded video. You get a copy of the footage, not just a description of it.
- Problem marking. A locator sonde and a depth reading mark each trouble spot on the ground.
- A written summary. A short report lists what we saw and where.
- Honest repair options. If the pipe needs work, we explain each choice and its cost.
- A note on clearing. When a clog blocks the camera, we clear it first and tell you why.
Why Chester Sewers Deserve a Look
The age of Chester housing makes a camera look worth the time.
- Original pipes. With a median build year of 1949, most Chester homes still have their original clay or cast iron lateral.
- Skipped scopes. Buyers often skip the sewer scope and find out about the pipe after closing.
- A small cost up front. A camera visit costs far less than a surprise repair that runs into the thousands.
