Why We Camera the Line First, Every Time

The single most expensive mistake in this trade is excavating on a guess. Slow drains, backups and gurgling all have several possible causes with wildly different price tags — a grease blockage needs cleaning, root intrusion at clay joints needs lining, a sagging PVC belly needs excavation and re-bedding, and a collapsed section needs replacement. From above ground those symptoms look identical. A camera inspection with a surface locator tells us the pipe material, the exact defect, its distance from the house and its depth, usually in under an hour. We have found plenty of lines a previous contractor had already quoted to replace that turned out to need cleaning. We quote from footage you can watch, not from a description.

Common Questions

Who owns the sewer lateral, me or MSD?

In most cases the homeowner owns the lateral from the house to the main. Many St. Louis County municipalities operate lateral repair assistance programs funded through a small property assessment, and they can cover a meaningful share of qualifying work. Terms vary and change, so call your city before paying out of pocket.

Do you offer emergency service?

Yes. An active backup is urgent and gets treated that way. The first priority is restoring flow; the camera inspection follows once the line is clear, so you learn what actually caused it rather than just clearing it again in six months.

Will homeowners insurance cover this?

Standard policies generally exclude sewer lateral failure. Many carriers sell a sewer line rider cheaply, and municipal programs exist in much of the county. Check both before assuming the whole cost is yours.
