Sewer Camera Inspection in NJ

One of any homeowner’s worst fears is having a problem with a sewer line. If a sewer line from your home to the street needs repair, your first instinct might be to call your town. But you’ll quickly learn that homeowners are responsible for the sewer lines from their homes to the street.

You may think that the only way to identify a problem with a sewer line is to dig up large amounts of your property to access the pipes. However, there is a less disruptive and more accurate way to determine the problem: sewer camera inspection in NJ.During this type of inspection, a trained technician inserts a high-resolution video camera attached to a flexible rod into the pipes to identify the problem.

First Choice Plumbing, Heating & Cooling provides in depth sewer camera inspection in NJ to determine the condition of your sewer lines. Whether you are experiencing blockage or other problems in your sewer lines, our professionals offer detailed looks into your sewer lines to determine a course of action. With 24/7 emergency service, you can expect expert service at any time, day or night, to bring you the relief you deserve. 

There are four main advantages of using a sewer camera inspection in NJ:
  • No Guesswork: The camera can travel through the entire pipe—even around corners. This enables your technician to see exactly what the problem is, where it is located, and then develop an effective solution.
  • Less Digging: Any digging on your property will be limited to one precise location to make the repair. Without a camera, technicians would have to conduct widespread digging just to find the problem, which could be disruptive and just plain ugly to look at.
  • Major Savings: The average cost of a sewer camera inspection in NJ is just $250, plus whatever it costs to repair the problem. Even if it’s a big repair, you are saving a lot of time and money when you compare the camera inspection solution to the alternative of massive digging before repair.  
  • Added peace of mind: When the job is complete, your technician will run the camera through the sewer line again just to show you that the sewer line is working properly again. Without a camera, you just have to trust that the work was done.


Dealing with sewer line problems is never fun. But if you find a plumber or technician that offers sewer camera inspections, it can greatly reduce the cost and hassle involved with sewer repair.

Our sewer specialists are available for expert inspections for the following counties:

Sewer line cleaning is often one of the last things on the minds of homeowners, mostly because sewer lines are not out in the open - out of sight, out of mind. What we cannot see cannot hurt us, right? Wrong.

If you do not invest in cleaning services for sewer lines, your pipes have the potential to become clogged because of the buildup that can occur from grease, hair, soaps and other items that can get caught in the drain. There are multiple causes that can prompt you to require sewer line cleaning.

The recommended inspection time for sewer lines is every one to two years. There are a couple of ways to determine whether or not you require sewer line cleaning services. One common tip-off that has already been mentioned is that drains become clogged. This prevents water and waste from passing through the pipes and instead, causes it to back up.

A second way to determine if you need to clean your sewer lines is if your fixtures are producing an unusual reaction when they are being used. There could be clogging or rising water when certain appliances such as toilets or sinks are in use.
