Camera-based inspection finds sewer line breaks, root intrusion, and drain leaks.
Trevor B., a Willard, Santa Ana homeowner, had been living with backups in the lowest drain in the house (often a shower or floor drain) for weeks before calling us. Camera inspection lets us show you exactly what's happening inside the line on screen, with the defect's distance from the access point logged, so any excavation or trenchless repair is targeted to that section only. The leak was marked in that same visit, and the repair crew only had to open a small section instead of the whole area.

Sewer line problems tend to show up gradually: slow drains, gurgling, or a damp patch in the yard that never quite dries out. Using push and drain-camera inspection equipment, we run a real-time video line down the sewer lateral to identify cracks, offset joints, root intrusion, or full breaks, and mark the exact distance and location from the cleanout.

A technician arrives with acoustic listening equipment, thermal imaging, and pressure or camera tools matched to your specific leak type.
The leak's exact location is marked and explained to you in plain terms, so nothing gets opened up on a guess.
You receive a written diagnostic report you can hand to your plumber, restoration team, or insurance company, with repair or fix options discussed on the spot.
We provide sewer & drain leak detection for homeowners, property managers, and businesses throughout the state, including these service areas:
“The floor in our hallway had a warm spot for weeks. They found the slab leak in under an hour with the listening equipment and marked a tiny area instead of tearing up the whole hallway. Huge relief.”
“Our water bill jumped for two months straight and we couldn't find why. Turned out it was a slow leak behind the water heater. Professional, on time, and explained everything on the spot.”
“Salt air had corroded a fitting outside near the meter box. They traced it with the acoustic equipment without digging up my whole side yard first. Appreciated the straightforward report.”
“Good experience overall, technician was knowledgeable and thorough. Took a little longer than expected but they were clearly being careful about pinpointing the exact spot before marking it.”
“Old Victorian with plaster walls everywhere, so I was dreading this. They used thermal imaging and found the leak behind one wall panel instead of opening up the whole room. Saved us a big repair bill.”
“Ground near our garage had been soft for a while. Turned out to be the main line. They marked the exact dig spot and our plumber only had to open a two-foot section instead of the whole path.”
