Camera inspection
A small camera on a cable rides through the line and records roots, cracks, sags and breaks. Repair decisions then rest on actual footage.
The sewer line carries every drain’s waste out of the house. When it clogs again and again, smells or backs up, a camera inspection shows what is wrong and what repair fits.
Sewer work covers Arvada and the cities nearby.
A small camera on a cable rides through the line and records roots, cracks, sags and breaks. Repair decisions then rest on actual footage.
Roots that have grown into a joint get cut back. Footage taken afterward tells you whether the pipe underneath can stay.
If one section of the sewer pipe has failed, a plumber digs out that stretch and replaces it, leaving the remaining pipe in place.
A line that has given out along nearly its whole length may be better replaced from house to connection than patched.
Arvada’s building permit page says alterations, replacement and repair work need a building permit. It does not name sewer line repair as a permit of its own.
Check with the City on your job before work is scheduled, and have the plumber confirm what applies.
Half of Arvada’s homes were built in or before 1979. Take that median as the starting point and adjust for your own house with the sewer line age checker.
Repeated clogs may call for a camera inspection and not another drain clearing visit. A repiping job is separate, on the supply side. See the homepage for the rest.
