How do I find out where my sewer line runs before digging starts? A camera inspection answers that. It also tells us whether the line is clay, cast iron, or PVC, where roots have gotten in, and whether a repair even requires digging at all. Fort Thomas Sewer Pros runs this as a standalone diagnostic, not just a lead-in to a bigger sale.
Given how many homes in Fort Thomas's core still run on original 1890s-era laterals, a camera inspection is often the only way to know what's actually down there before picking a repair method. The footage and locator data also tell us exactly where the line sits on the property, which matters on sloped lots where a lateral's path isn't always obvious from the surface.

Materials
Materials and methods for Sewer Camera Inspection
Push Camera Systems
Rod-mounted cameras navigate the bends common in older clay lateral runs without added access points.
Self-Leveling Camera Heads
These keep footage upright even as the camera passes through pipe that's shifted slightly on a sloped lot.
Locator Transmitters
Built-in transmitters let us mark the exact surface position of a damaged section before anyone digs.
Recording Equipment
Footage is saved so you have a record of pipe condition for your own files or a future repair estimate.
Distance Counters
Counters track exactly how far into the line any issue sits, which speeds up repair planning.
Protective Camera Housings
Waterproof housings keep the equipment working reliably in wet, root-clogged older pipe.

Sewer Camera Inspection FAQs
How do I find out where my sewer line runs before digging starts?
A camera inspection with a locator transmitter marks the exact path and depth of the line on the surface, which is the standard way to map a lateral before any excavation work.
How do I know if I need pipe bursting vs. lining?
The camera footage shows whether damage is isolated or spread across the pipe, and whether the pipe has collapsed. That footage is what we use to recommend lining, bursting, or a smaller spot repair.
How much does a sewer camera inspection cost in Fort Thomas?
Standalone inspections cost less than a bundled repair estimate since there's no repair work involved. We quote it upfront, not buried inside a bigger job.
Is trenchless sewer repair worth it?
Knowing the actual pipe condition first, which a camera inspection provides, is what makes trenchless repair decisions reliable rather than guesswork.
Do I need a permit for a sewer camera inspection?
No. Inspection alone doesn't disturb the pipe or the ground, so there's nothing to permit.
