When your home or business starts showing signs of recurring drain problems, slow toilets, or unexplained plumbing backups, a standard clearing method may not be enough. Many Orlando property owners don’t realize that clogged drains can sometimes be symptoms of deeper issues hiding inside the sewer line—issues that can’t be identified without a professional plumbing camera inspection.
At The Godfather Solution, camera inspections are one of the most effective diagnostic tools we use to uncover the real cause behind stubborn, persistent, or mysterious drain problems. Whether you’re dealing with recurring backups, foul odors, or a possible collapsed pipe, this advanced service goes far beyond simple snaking or hydro jetting.
Below are the key signs that it’s time to bring in a professional for a sewer or drain camera inspection—and why this service can save you hundreds (even thousands) of dollars by stopping issues before they become major emergencies.
If your sink, shower, or toilet is backing up again shortly after being cleared, that’s not normal. Recurring clogs often signal:
These are issues that plungers and store-bought drain cleaners simply cannot fix. A drain camera inspection reveals exactly what’s causing the repeat blockage so the right solution can be applied—whether that’s snaking, hydro jetting, or a targeted repair.
One slow drain usually means a localized clog.
But multiple slow drains? That’s almost always a sign of a deeper sewer line issue.
If your kitchen sink, bathroom sink, shower, and toilet are all draining sluggishly, a camera inspection will show whether the main sewer line has:
Catching this early can prevent a total sewer backup—one of the most expensive and disruptive plumbing emergencies a home or business can face.
A foul sewage odor is one of the biggest red flags that something is wrong deep within your sewer system.
A camera inspection can identify if the smell is coming from:
Ignoring the smell can lead to contamination issues and major structural damage. If something smells “off,” get it checked before it gets worse.
Older homes and businesses in Orlando, especially those built before the 1980s, often have aging cast-iron or clay sewer lines. These materials are at higher risk for corrosion, collapse, and intrusion.
Large trees—especially oaks, palms, and ficus—also pose a risk because their roots naturally seek moisture. Sewer lines provide the perfect environment.
A camera inspection will reveal:
The earlier these issues are found, the more affordable the repair options.
Just like you wouldn’t buy a car without checking what’s under the hood, you shouldn’t buy a property without knowing the condition of its sewer system.
A sewer camera inspection is one of the most overlooked yet most important steps in a real estate transaction. It ensures:
This inspection provides photo and video documentation—something realtors and buyers love for transparency.
If you notice wet patches, sinkholes, or lush green areas in your yard, your sewer line may be cracked or leaking underground.
A camera inspection can confirm the exact location of the issue so repairs can be done with precision, avoiding unnecessary digging and costs.
