Sewer Camera Inspection in the Greater Salt Lake Area

A camera shows you what is really going on inside the line, so nobody has to guess. Acme Sewer & Drain Cleaning is a licensed, owner-operated Utah plumbing contractor. We put a camera down your drain or sewer line, show you what we find, and tell you the right fix. Call (801) 930-8000 to schedule a sewer camera inspection.

What Is a Sewer Camera Inspection?

A sewer camera inspection puts a waterproof camera down your drain or sewer line so we can see the inside of the pipe in real time. Instead of guessing why a line keeps backing up, we look at it. Here is what the camera can show us:

  • Grease, sludge and scale buildup
  • Tree root intrusion
  • Cracked, broken or offset pipe
  • Bellies (low spots that hold water)
  • Collapsed sections
  • Foreign objects causing repeated clogs

Camera first is how we work. Before we start cleaning, we put the camera down so we know what we are dealing with and can tell you the right fix.

How a Camera Inspection Works

1. Access and setup

We find the best way into the line, usually a cleanout or a drain opening.

2. Camera down the line

We run the camera through the pipe and watch it live. If the line is too dirty to see through, we jet it and run the camera again. A sewer main is much easier to see after a jet.

3. Locating the problem

If we find a break, a collapse or roots, we can locate where it is in your yard or building so a repair means less digging.

4. What we found and what to do about it

We tell you what we saw in plain words and give you a straight recommendation. No upsells.

Camera Inspection vs. Drain Cleaning

The camera is how we find the problem. Cleaning or repair is how we fix it. We put the camera down first so we know whether the line needs snaking, hydro jetting or a repair, and afterward we can run it again to confirm the line is clear.

Buying a Home or Commercial Building?

A sewer scope shows the condition of the main line before you close. It is one of the most useful inspections you can do on an older property.
