When to Schedule a Camera Inspection in Huntley, IL

While many plumbing issues can be resolved with basic tools, some problems run deeper—and require a closer look. If you're experiencing frequent clogs, sewage smells, or backups that keep coming back, a camera inspection is your next step.

Common reasons to request a plumbing camera inspection:

  • Recurring clogs in the same drain or area
  • Sewage backups or foul odors in tubs or toilets
  • Slow drains throughout the house
  • Unexplained gurgling or bubbling in sinks and showers
  • Tree root intrusion or suspected pipe damage
  • Drain line mapping before remodeling or additions
  • Verifying repairs after a sewer or drain service
  • Buying or selling a home and want to confirm pipe condition

Whether your plumbing issue is urgent or you're planning ahead, a camera inspection provides the answers you need—without guesswork.

What Can We See with a Camera Inspection?

Our high-definition plumbing cameras allow us to inspect your drain lines, sewer mains, and underground piping systems with clarity and precision. We can detect even the smallest issues and show you the footage in real time.

A camera inspection can reveal:

  • Blockages caused by grease, debris, or foreign objects
  • Tree root intrusion in sewer lines
  • Cracked, broken, or collapsed pipes
  • Bellied or sagging pipe sections
  • Pipe corrosion or buildup restricting flow
  • Improper slope or back-pitched lines
  • Connections and fittings that have failed
  • Previous repair issues or leftover debris

You'll be able to see exactly what we see—and we'll explain what it means and how to fix it.

Ideal for Drain & Sewer Line Inspections

Our camera technology is designed to inspect everything from 1.5" bathroom sink drains to 4" and larger main sewer lines, giving us full visibility into the most important parts of your plumbing system.

We use camera inspections to assess:

  • Kitchen and bathroom drains
  • Laundry and utility lines
  • Basement floor drains
  • Main sewer lines and cleanouts
  • Outdoor drain systems
  • New construction rough-ins
  • Pipes under slabs or foundations

Whether it's one fixture or your whole home, our tech shows you what's happening—and helps us fix it the right way.

Camera Inspection Paired with Drain Cleaning

Camera inspections are often paired with drain cleaning services like snaking or hydro jetting. If your home is experiencing recurring clogs or sewer line backups, we'll start with cleaning and follow up with a camera to ensure full clearance.

Benefits of combining inspection + cleaning:

  • Confirm that clogs have been fully removed
  • Verify pipe condition after hydro jetting
  • Spot structural damage or intrusion hidden by debris
  • Plan future service or pipe replacement with confidence
  • Prevent unnecessary return visits or repeat issues

At Hansen, we don't guess when it comes to your plumbing—we verify it.

Sewer Line Mapping for Remodeling or Repairs

If you're planning a home addition, bathroom remodel, or basement finish, knowing exactly where your sewer and drain lines are can save thousands in rework or delays. Our camera equipment can help you map your plumbing system accurately before construction begins.

We'll mark pipe locations, depths, and problem areas—allowing your contractor to plan efficiently and avoid damaging essential plumbing infrastructure during renovations.

Real-Time Visual Reporting & Recommendations

One of the greatest advantages of our video inspection service is transparency. You're not relying on a vague guess or feeling—you're watching the same video our technician sees, with expert guidance at every step.

You'll receive:

  • A live walkthrough of what we find
  • Clear explanations of what's happening and why
  • Honest advice on repair or replacement options
  • A copy of the video (available upon request)
  • Help with insurance or home inspection reports, if needed

We believe informed homeowners make smarter choices—and we're here to guide you through them.

Early Detection Saves Money & Prevents Damage

Many homeowners wait until a major sewer backup or flood happens before calling a plumber. A camera inspection gives you the opportunity to catch problems early—before they damage your home or require costly emergency repairs.

Issues a camera inspection can help prevent:

  • Foundation leaks or slab movement from pipe leaks
  • Sewer backups into basements, tubs, or floor drains
  • Water damage from unseen pipe breaks
  • Yard flooding caused by cracked or collapsed underground lines
  • Emergency excavation or trenching costs

An inspection today can save you thousands tomorrow.

Homebuyers: Get a Sewer Inspection Before You Close

If you're buying a home in Huntley or the surrounding area, a sewer line inspection should be part of your due diligence. Standard home inspections do not include sewer or drain diagnostics—yet a failing sewer line can cost $5,000 to $15,000 to fix.

We offer pre-purchase camera inspections to help buyers:

  • Confirm pipe condition before closing
  • Negotiate repairs or credits from the seller
  • Avoid surprise plumbing emergencies after moving in
  • Know what kind of piping material exists (cast iron, clay, PVC, etc.)

This is especially important for older homes with aging infrastructure or large, tree-lined lots.

Frequently Asked Questions About Camera Inspections in Huntley, IL

A plumbing camera inspection uses a small, waterproof video camera attached to a flexible cable that's inserted into your drains or sewer line. The live feed shows us the condition of your pipes, including blockages, cracks, roots, or corrosion. It's non-invasive and highly accurate.

You should schedule one if you're experiencing recurring clogs, slow drains, sewage smells, gurgling pipes, or unexplained backups. It's also a smart move before buying a home, planning a remodel, or after a major drain cleaning service to verify results.

Most inspections take between 30 minutes and one hour, depending on the size and complexity of your plumbing system. We provide a live walkthrough, review the findings with you, and can offer solutions immediately if needed.

Yes. Tree root intrusion is one of the most common problems we detect during sewer line inspections in Huntley. The camera shows the exact location and severity of the root growth, helping us plan targeted removal or repair.
