the video shows the clog at 32 feet , you can dig to replace that leaking root invaded joint with a Fernco flex seal. That will work but there was a few other joints starting to let roots in.
Great video! Can I BUY or RENT THIS CAMERA at Home Depot, Lowes or a Plumbing Store so I can do this myself? I have something clogging my Houses Sewer Later that runs between my Outside Clean Out and City’s Sewer in my front yard (about 10’ distance)
From a license plumbers point of view, Give a bid on replacing the pipe from the transition point to the street. Or do not touch it at all and walk away.
Why would you replace the complete sewer if you go out and clean that drain more than twice a year. How much does Marin Plumbing charge to clean a sewer line???
but if you used cast iron for sewer lines that will rust and cause problems again, i live in north carolina and i have never seen cast iron for sewer lines and i do undergrounds and we only used pvc pipes
I will do a drain unblock and suggest a cctv at the end. If the customer declines a cctv inspection if it clogs again I say the next unblock cost will include a cctv as their is a potential problem. Better see what's going on sooner than later.
If i had the camera i would use it everytime. It seems to me as a plummer you would want to make sure you got all of the clog. This should come with the price of service not an up charge.
