Video Pipe Inspection

A video pipe inspection utilizes a small, waterproof video camera attached to a flexible fiber optic cable. The equipment provides a live view of its passage down drains and the sewer pipe, displayed on a monitor. This enables the plumber in Arlington to identify the problem, and determine the best solution.
