Eyes on the pipe
Live video diagnosis
The basics
Diagnosis before demolition
A video pipe inspection sends a waterproof camera on a flexible cable through your sewer, septic, or drain line while we watch the feed in real time. Instead of guessing, or digging up your yard to find out, we see cracks, root intrusion, bellies, grease, and blockages exactly where they are. That turns a mystery into a clear plan, and it is why we camera the line before recommending drain cleaning, sewer repair, or trenchless work.
What we find & fix
Video pipe inspection services
Sewer, septic, drain, and commercial lines, scoped on camera so the diagnosis is certain.
Sewer Line Inspection
We scope your main sewer line to pinpoint backups, breaks, and root intrusion before anyone digs.
Septic Line Inspection
Camera inspection of septic lines and tank inlets to find the cause of slow drains and backups.
Drain & Branch Line Inspection
Scoping kitchen, laundry, and branch drains to locate recurring clogs and hidden problems.
Home-Buyer Sewer Scope
Buying or selling a home? A sewer scope reveals line condition before you are stuck with the bill.
Commercial Pipe Inspection
Video inspection for restaurants, retail, rentals, and multi-unit buildings to keep lines flowing.
Line Locating & Diagnosis
We mark the exact depth and location of the problem, so any repair is targeted, not a guess.
How it works
How a camera inspection works
A few minutes with a camera can save you thousands in unnecessary digging.
1
Insert the camera
We feed a waterproof camera on a flexible cable into the line through a cleanout or drain.
2
Watch it live
We view the pipe interior in real time, spotting cracks, roots, bellies, and blockages.
3
Locate & mark
We pinpoint the exact depth and spot of the problem so any repair is precise.
4
Explain your options
We show you what we found and lay out the honest fix, no scare tactics, no guesswork.
When to scope it
When you need a camera inspection
A camera inspection is cheap insurance against guessing wrong on an expensive repair.
Recurring or multiple backups
If clogs keep returning, a camera finds the real cause instead of repeating temporary fixes.
Before you buy a home
A sewer scope reveals the line’s condition before closing, so you are not stuck with a hidden repair.
Before any sewer repair
Scoping first means we fix the actual problem in the right spot, not dig up the whole yard.
Slow drains with no clear cause
When the source is a mystery, a camera shows exactly what is happening inside the pipe.
Old home or old pipe material
Clay, cast iron, and Orangeburg lines should be inspected before they fail completely.
After a backup or flood
A post-event inspection confirms whether the line was damaged and what needs attention.

What the camera finds
The usual suspects
Most line problems come down to a few culprits, and the camera shows us exactly which one.
Roots
Tree roots growing into joints and cracks, the number one cause of sewer line failure.
Cracks & Breaks
Cracked, offset, or collapsed pipe sections that leak and trap waste.
Bellies & Blockages
Sagging low spots and grease or debris buildup that cause repeated clogs.
Smart for Maryland homes
Why this matters here
Many homes across Clarksburg, Damascus, and Montgomery County have decades-old clay, cast iron, or Orangeburg sewer pipe surrounded by mature trees. A camera inspection is the cheapest way to know the real condition, before you buy a home, before a repair, or the moment backups start.
- Scope before buying any home with older plumbing
- Inspect before agreeing to any major sewer repair
- Catch root intrusion early, before it collapses the line
- Verify the fix worked with a follow-up scope
Found a problem?
We can fix it too
If the camera finds a break or blockage, we handle the repair, from drain cleaning to trenchless sewer replacement, all with one trusted crew.
The people behind the camera
A crew you are glad to let in
A camera is only as good as the plumber reading it. Our own trained, background checked crew knows exactly what they are looking at, explains it in plain language, and gives you honest options, not a sales pitch.

Absolute best plumbers I have ever used. Needed them a few times recently and each time they were so professional, kind and resolved each problem the first time around. This last issue took them several hours to fix. They explained everything along the way and gave a very fair price for a lot of work. They also work very cleanly! I will never use another plumber!

I needed a water valve installed for my new fridge and a new faucet installed in upstairs bathroom. Seth was amazing. He came out and really listened to me and my concerns. We even called the company that was going to deliver my new fridge so he would have a better understanding of what he needed to do his job. It made me feel at ease with the whole process. He is even coming back later in the week to install new fridge once it’s delivered. I will absolutely call them again.

Amazing experience with Clarksburg Plumbing LLC! Our well pump needed replacement. Seth showed up right on time, was very professional, knew what he was doing and pricing was fare (they showed me all estimates upfront and explained everything). Any future plumbing needs and Clarksburg Plumbing will be my first call. I’ll also ask for Seth by name if I can get him!!

We had a pinhole leak suddenly appear in our outdoor hose bib, and Clarksburg Plumbing was able to provide next-day service, which we really appreciated. Our technician, John Brown, arrived right on time after giving us a 30-minute courtesy call. John quickly diagnosed the problem, explained everything clearly, and provided an accurate assessment of what needed to be done. He completed the repair in under two hours, and the quality of his work was excellent. Before leaving, he even took the time to share some helpful tips on how to prevent similar issues in the future. John was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and efficient from start to finish. We couldn’t have asked for a better service experience. I highly recommend Clarksburg Plumbing and especially John Brown for anyone needing reliable, high-quality plumbing work.

Cris and Franklin from Clarksburg Plumbing did incredible work at our home fixing an underground water service leak. They encountered complications but went to plan B efficiently and skillfully and got the job done well and in a timely manner. They also answered all our questions patiently and taught us a lot of why they made the decisions they made. We are very pleased with their work and plan to recommend them and all of Clarksburg Plumbing to our friends and neighbors.

We had a clog in our septic line. The Clarksburg Plumbing crew located the troublesome area using a camera and then removed the clog and tested the line. They then remounted the toilet with a new wax ring and cleaned the area. Overall, a great experience!

Seth was absolutely amazing! He was very courteous and knowledgeable about his profession. He arrived on time and worked the entire time. He kept me in the loop the entire way as to what he was doing. He diagnosed two leaks within our toilet system and readily fixed them. Clarksburg Plumbing should be honored to have such an amazing employee as him.
Good questions
Camera inspection FAQ
What homeowners and buyers ask us most about video pipe inspection.
What is a sewer camera inspection?
We feed a waterproof, high-resolution camera on a flexible cable through your sewer, septic, or drain line and watch the feed live. It lets us see cracks, roots, bellies, and blockages exactly where they are, without digging.
When should I get a sewer camera inspection?
Common times are recurring or multiple backups, before buying or selling a home, before any major sewer repair, or when slow drains have no obvious cause. It is the smartest first step for any underground line problem.
Do you do sewer scopes for home buyers?
Yes. A pre-purchase sewer scope shows the condition of the main line before you close, so you do not inherit a costly hidden repair. We can provide footage and a clear summary of what we found.
Can you tell exactly where the problem is?
Yes. We locate the depth and position of the issue and mark it, so if a repair is needed, it is targeted to the right spot instead of guessing and over-digging.
Do you inspect septic lines too?
We do. We scope septic lines and inlets to diagnose slow drains and backups, and recommend the right next step for your system.
Does video inspection work for commercial properties?
Yes. We inspect lines for restaurants, retail, rentals, and multi-unit buildings to find problems and plan repairs with minimal disruption to your business.
What areas do you serve?
We serve Clarksburg, Germantown, Gaithersburg, Rockville, Damascus, Potomac, North Bethesda, and the surrounding Montgomery and Frederick County area.
