NASSCO-Certified Sewer Inspection in Austin, TX

5.0· 7 verified Austin reviews

NASSCO-certified sewer inspection is what we lead with in Austin - certified operators, calibrated CCTV crawlers, and PACP-coded reports that City permit desks, GCs, and title companies accept without a second look. Austin's underground runs the full spectrum, from turn-of-the-century clay laterals under East Austin bungalows to freshly installed PVC in North Austin build-outs, and that range is exactly why a certified sewer scope beats a hand-held camera and a verbal opinion. We run daily for GCs, developers, property managers, and commercial buyers across Travis County - downtown high-rises, South Congress commercial, and commercial remodels in Tarrytown, Hyde Park, and Zilker.

Common Austin projects

  • NASSCO PACP-coded sewer inspection for commercial property transactions and GCs-required reports
  • Root intrusion into aging clay sewer laterals in East and Central Austin neighborhoods
  • Grease line diagnostics and CCTV verification for downtown restaurants and food-service properties
  • Pre-construction utility verification and post-repair sewer scope for dense infill projects
  • Storm drain condition assessments for property refinancing, sales, and City compliance

NASSCO-certified CSC Pipe Inspection crew running a CCTV pipeline inspection at a commercial site in Austin, Travis County, Texas

CCTV Pipeline Inspection in Austin

High-resolution camera inspection of sanitary sewer, storm drain and underground utility systems.

Delivered on-site across Austin and Travis County with the same certified crew you'd get on any CSC cctv inspection job.

Our CCTV crawlers and push cameras run Austin laterals, mains, and building drains from 2 in. to 36 in. Heavy Central Texas runoff moves grit into Austin lines fast, so silt and sag show up earlier than owners expect. COIs go to your Austin GC or facilities team the same day you book, and reports land before your next project meeting. Scheduling for Austin is same-day on most bookings, with emergency call-outs dispatched as soon as a truck frees up.

Commercial Vacuum Truck Services in Austin

Two commercial vacuum trucks removing water, mud, sediment, sludge and non-hazardous debris on active construction and infrastructure projects.

Available on emergency call-out when a Austin basin overtops after a storm.

We clean out Austin wet wells, lift stations, grease traps, and basins without renting a second contractor. Heavy Central Texas runoff moves grit into Austin lines fast, so silt and sag show up earlier than owners expect. Every Austin job closes with a written report, defect footage, and a flat price quoted before the truck leaves Cedar Park. Crews reach Austin same-day on most bookings from our Cedar Park yard, roughly 20 miles out.

Sewer & Storm Line Cleaning in Austin

High-pressure jetting to remove sediment, grease, roots, concrete residue and construction debris from sanitary sewer and storm drainage.

Delivered on-site across Austin and Travis County with the same certified crew you'd get on any CSC line cleaning job.

We clean Austin lines and then camera them, so you get proof the pipe is actually open wall to wall. Because Austin keeps building on top of existing infrastructure, the as-builts rarely match what is in the ground. Every Austin job closes with a written report, defect footage, and a flat price quoted before the truck leaves Cedar Park. Scheduling for Austin is same-day on most bookings, with emergency call-outs dispatched as soon as a truck frees up.

Hydro Excavation & Potholing in Austin

Safely expose underground utilities using pressurized water and vacuum equipment - daylighting, potholing and utility test holes.

Delivered on-site across Austin and Travis County with the same certified crew you'd get on any CSC hydro excavation job.

We pothole Austin crossings to confirm depth and alignment before your crew commits to a trench line. Austin sites near East Austin tend to mix decades of construction phases in a single utility corridor. Findings are handed off in a format your Austin design team can drop straight into a scope of work. Crews reach Austin same-day on most bookings from our Cedar Park yard, roughly 20 miles out.

Utility Line Locating in Austin

Locate and mark underground sewer, water, electrical and communication infrastructure before excavation, drilling or construction begins.

Delivered on-site across Austin and Travis County with the same certified crew you'd get on any CSC line locating job.

We sweep Austin parcels before dig day and hand your GC a marked, photographed site plan. Around Downtown that usually means older mixed-material pipe with joints that never fully sealed. You get PACP-coded findings, full video, and still captures the same day, formatted the way Travis County reviewers and engineering firms expect. Crews reach Austin same-day on most bookings from our Cedar Park yard, roughly 20 miles out.

GCs, developers, property managers, and municipal crews in Austin rely on CSC for the full pipeline stack. cctv inspection in Austin, vac truck in Austin, line cleaning in Austin, hydro excavation in Austin, and line locating in Austin are dispatched from our Cedar Park yard, usually same-day within Travis County County.

What we actually get called for in Austin

Common pipe and utility problems in Austin, TX

These are the failure patterns our crews document most often on Austin commercial and municipal sites, what causes them in Travis County, and how we respond.

Unmarked utilities on Austin dig sites

What you see
As-builts that do not match the field, 811 markings that stop at the property line, and a crew that will not break ground.
Why it happens here
Private laterals, irrigation, site lighting, and abandoned conduit around East Austin were never added to any public record.
How we fix it
Private locating plus hydro-excavation potholes confirm horizontal position and depth before your Austin excavator starts.
See how we handle this in Austin

Unverified new construction pipe in Austin

What you see
A Austin project ready for backfill or acceptance with no video record of what was actually installed.
Why it happens here
Trades work fast on Travis County build-outs, and debris, crushed sections, and bad grade get buried before anyone looks.
How we fix it
Pre-backfill CCTV with grade and joint verification, delivered as an acceptance-ready PACP report your inspector will take.
See how we handle this in Austin

Bellies and sags under Austin slabs and drive lanes

What you see
Standing water in the camera view, solids collecting mid-run, and a line that clears then backs up again within weeks.
Why it happens here
Expansive Travis County clay swells and shrinks under bedding, and heavy truck traffic across Austin drive lanes accelerates the settlement.
How we fix it
We measure the sag depth on camera, mark the surface with a sonde, and give your GC a repair length instead of an open-ended dig.
See how we handle this in Austin

Root intrusion in aging Austin laterals

What you see
Recurring slow drains and backups on the same Austin building line, usually worst after a dry spell breaks.
Why it happens here
Clay and cast-iron laterals around Downtown leak just enough moisture at the joints for Travis County tree roots to find them.
How we fix it
We camera the line, PACP-code every root intrusion by footage, cut the mat out with a jetting head, and re-scope to confirm full-bore flow.
See how we handle this in Austin

Unknown line condition during Austin due diligence

What you see
A commercial acquisition or refinance in Austin where the underground is the last unpriced risk on the checklist.
Why it happens here
Sewer and storm systems on older Austin assets are rarely documented, and sellers seldom have video.
How we fix it
Full-site scope on a due-diligence clock, with a defect summary your team can convert straight into a repair allowance.

High-intent sewer inspection · Austin

NASSCO-certified sewer camera inspection in Austin, TX

PACP-coded reports for Austin GCs, developers, and property managers - usually same-day inside Loop 1.

Searching for a sewer camera inspection in Austin before you close on a commercial property? CSC Pipe Inspection runs a color CCTV crawler through the lateral from the cleanout to the city tap, records the full run, and delivers a PACP-coded PDF the same day. Municipal reviewers, engineering firms, and the City of Austin Development Services desk accept our reports without callbacks.

Austin's older commercial corridors - Hyde Park, Travis Heights, Rosedale, Clarksville, Bouldin Creek - still have cast-iron and clay laterals in the 60- to 90-year range serving mixed-use and multifamily buildings. We find the belly, offset joint, or root intrusion before you close, then hand you a repair scope you can hold a contractor to. In newer commercial builds east of 183, we catch the PVC crushes and construction debris that show up in year one.

Every Austin sewer inspection includes locate-and-mark of the defect from the surface, footage-stamped stills, and a plain-English summary next to the PACP codes so property managers, developers, and municipal inspectors are on the same page.

Common buyer signals we hear from Austin:

  • Acquiring a commercial property in 78704, 78703, 78751, 78702, or 78745 - cast-iron and clay era
  • Under due-diligence period, need a sewer scope report before the deadline
  • Seller disclosure mentions past backups or root cutting
  • 1940s-1970s commercial building with original waste line and no prior camera footage

Why Austin calls CSC

Local differentiators - not a national script

  • Flat-rate pricing quoted in writing before we roll a truck to Austin - no trip fees, no "diagnostic" surprises.
  • Fully insured for commercial and municipal work across Travis County - COIs issued to your GC or property manager the same day.
  • Crews who already know Travis County soils, permitting timelines, and the utility markouts you'll get back from 811 in Austin.
  • Every camera run around Downtown is archived so you can hand the file to a contractor, engineer, or the next facilities manager without re-inspecting.

How we work in Austin

A predictable process, on every Travis County job

  1. 1

    PACP-coded report

    Every defect is coded to NASSCO PACP standards, mapped by footage from the cleanout, and delivered as a PDF plus the raw video - usually before we leave Austin.

  2. 2

    Repair recommendations

    We hand the file to your GC or engineer with a plain-English summary of what's normal wear for Austin commercial lines and what actually needs work.

Offset clay joint under a live East Austin loading dock

Mixed-use retail shell, East Austin near Springdale · CCTV Pipeline Inspection

The problem

The GC was three weeks from turnover on a retail shell and the building sewer kept surcharging into the loading dock trench drain after every rain. Two prior contractors had rodded the line and called it clear. Nobody had put a camera on it, so nobody could tell the owner whether the problem was inside the building, in the private lateral, or in the City main.

Our approach

  1. Set up on the downstream cleanout and ran a self-leveling CCTV crawler upstream through the full building sewer, logging footage marks at every defect
  2. Coded each observation to NASSCO PACP so the structural calls could be defended to the owner and the City
  3. Sonde-located the offset joint and paint-marked the dig window on the dock slab
  4. Verified the City tap and downstream main so responsibility was settled before anyone priced a repair

What the camera found

  • Heavily offset joint at 61 ft with visible soil infiltration, coded PACP JOM/JOL
  • Longitudinal crack running roughly 4 ft upstream of the offset in 6-inch vitrified clay
  • Standing water measured at 22 percent of pipe diameter, confirming a sag rather than a blockage
  • City tap and downstream main verified clear, moving responsibility onto the private lateral

Measurable results

  • Defect sonde-located and paint-marked on the surface, so the repair crew dug one 8 ft pit instead of trenching the full run
  • PACP-coded report and HD video sent the same afternoon, which the owner's rep accepted without a second opinion
  • Post-repair re-scope documented a clean, correctly graded line and closed out the punch item before turnover

Grease-choked 6-inch main serving a downtown Austin food hall

Multi-tenant food hall, Downtown Austin · Sewer Jetting & CCTV Verification

The problem

Six kitchen tenants shared one 6-inch cast iron main under the slab. Backups were hitting the two tenants furthest downstream about every ten days, and the property manager was absorbing after-hours emergency calls with no evidence of who or what was causing it.

Our approach

  1. Scoped the 6-inch main first to separate a maintenance problem from a structural one before any jetting was quoted
  2. Ran warthog and chain-free nozzles overnight from downstream to upstream so grease was carried out, not packed forward
  3. Cleared the interceptor discharge line in the same window so the main would not reload
  4. Re-scoped the full run on camera before opening and issued footage-marked video tied to each tenant tie-in

What the camera found

  • Hardened grease reducing the main to roughly 25 percent of its design diameter across a 40 ft run
  • Grease loading concentrated downstream of two specific tenant tie-ins, documented on video with footage marks
  • No structural defects in the cast iron - the failure was maintenance, not pipe condition
  • Interceptor discharge line partially blocked, feeding the problem back into the main

Measurable results

  • Hydro-jetted back to full diameter overnight, with a verification scope run before the first tenant opened
  • Footage-marked video gave the property manager tenant-specific evidence for the grease policy conversation
  • Quarterly jetting and scope schedule put in place; no emergency backups reported since

Austin FAQ

Questions we hear from Austin customers

How do you approach nASSCO PACP-coded sewer inspection for commercial property transactions and GCs-required reports for Austin sites?

Yes, routinely. Crews working Austin and the rest of Travis County see this weekly. We scope the line, code every defect to NASSCO PACP standard, sonde-locate anything that needs digging, and send a report with video the same or next business day so your repair scope is defensible.

Do you handle root intrusion into aging clay sewer laterals in East and Central Austin neighborhoods in Austin?

Yes. That is one of the most common calls we take in Austin. We camera the line first so you are paying to fix a confirmed defect instead of guessing, then jet, vac, or expose only what the footage justifies. You get HD video, NASSCO PACP codes, footage marks, and a written recommendation you can hand to an owner or engineer.

Is grease line diagnostics and CCTV verification for downtown restaurants and food-service properties something you deal with around Austin?

That is standard work for us in Austin. We start with a CCTV condition survey, clean only where the camera shows it is needed, and document before and after so you can prove the condition to a landlord, lender, GC, or Travis County reviewer.

Can your vacuum truck reach lift stations, catch basins, and grease traps in Austin?

Yes. We run vac trucks through Austin and Travis County for wet wells, lift stations, catch basins, grease traps, interceptors, and flooded vaults. Material is hauled and manifested to a permitted disposal site, and we can run the work after hours so your Austin site keeps operating.

How often should a Austin restaurant or facility jet its grease and sewer lines?

Food service in Austin usually needs jetting every 60 to 90 days, general commercial once or twice a year, and older lines near Downtown more often. We camera before and after each cleaning so you can see the pipe wall, not just take our word that the line ran clear.

Is hydro excavation safe next to live utilities on a Austin job site?

That is exactly why we use it. Pressurized water and vacuum expose gas, water, fiber, and electrical without a blade touching the line, which is the standard most Austin GCs and Travis County inspectors expect near existing services. We backfill and restore the pothole so the site stays clean and inspection-ready.

Do you work in Tarrytown and the rest of Austin?

Yes. Austin is 20 miles from our yard and sits inside our regular Travis County route, so Tarrytown, Zilker, and every commercial corridor in between get the same crew and equipment. Call (737) 618-0219 or email office@cspipeinspection.com with the site address and scope.

Will a Austin inspection report hold up with Travis County reviewers and lenders?

It is built for that. Reports are NASSCO PACP coded by certified operators, timestamped, footage-referenced, and delivered with unedited video, which is what Travis County plan reviewers, engineers, lenders, and insurers ask for. We are licensed and insured, and certificates naming your entity as additional insured are available before we mobilize.

Do you run CCTV inspections on older clay sewer lines in East and Central Austin?

Constantly. A lot of the pre-1970s properties in Cherrywood, French Place, Bouldin, and Travis Heights still have vitrified clay laterals, and root intrusion at every joint is the norm. We use a push camera for tight commercial lines and a crawler for larger municipal work. Every job includes the video plus a written defect log timestamped to distance from the cleanout.

How fast can you respond in downtown Austin for a restaurant grease line backup?

We keep a jetter available for same-day dispatch inside 610 and can typically be on-site within a few hours during business hours. Downtown restaurants along Rainey Street, Congress, and East 6th are our regular customers - we know the alley access, service window rules, and how to avoid disrupting your dinner service.

Can you pothole utilities on infill construction in a dense Austin neighborhood without tearing up the site?

That's exactly what hydro-excavation is for. On tight infill lots in Hyde Park, Zilker, and East Austin we can expose gas, water, and telecom lines within inches of the mark with almost no ground disturbance. Spoils go into the vac tank, not onto the sidewalk, and we can hand-restore the surface when we're done.

Do you work with the City of Austin's development services and inspection requirements?

Yes. We regularly submit CCTV footage and condition reports for City of Austin utility acceptance, TCEQ compliance, and property-transaction due diligence. If your inspector needs a specific format or NASSCO-style coding, tell us up front and we'll deliver it that way.

How do I request a quote for a Austin project?

Send your Austin site address, scope (footage, pipe size, access points), plans or photos and a requested completion date. Call (737) 618-0219, email office@cspipeinspection.com, or use the quote form on this site - most quotes go out the same business day.

Do you charge a travel or trip fee to Austin?

No standard trip fee for scheduled Austin and Travis County work on a normal route. Rush, after-hours or remote-access mobilizations are quoted transparently up front so there are no surprises on the invoice.

Are you licensed, insured and NASSCO certified for work in Austin?

Yes - CSC Pipe Inspection is fully licensed, insured and NASSCO certified. Certificates of insurance naming your GC, owner or Austin/Travis County agency as additional insured are available on request before mobilization.

How soon can you be on-site in Austin?

Most standard Austin projects are scheduled within 1-3 business days. Same-day and after-hours response is available for active-site emergencies, flooded structures and construction-schedule urgencies - call and we'll dispatch the closest crew.

Do you handle both one-off and recurring work in Austin?

Both. We take single-project calls (a stuck line, a pre-purchase inspection, a utility pothole) and we run scheduled recurring programs - monthly grease-line jetting, quarterly catch basin cleaning, annual storm-system CCTV - for Austin property managers, HOAs, MUDs and facility teams.

Can you coordinate CCTV, jetting, vac-truck and locating on the same Austin mobilization?

Yes - that's the point of running one crew. We routinely combine cleaning, camera inspection, hydro-excavation and private locating on the same Austin visit so you get one schedule, one contact, one invoice and one accountable contractor.

Do you serve Austin, TX?

Yes. Austin is part of our regular service area - we're 20 miles away. Call (737) 618-0219 for a same-day quote.

What underground utility services are available in Austin?

We offer all five core services in Austin: CCTV pipeline inspection, hydro-excavation, pipe jetting, potholing and daylighting, and private line locating.

What does a typical CCTV inspection cost in Austin?

Commercial sewer scopes in Austin generally run in the same range as the rest of the Austin metro - we quote a flat price in writing before the truck leaves Cedar Park, based on line length, access, and whether you need PACP coding. Call (737) 618-0219 for a specific quote on your Travis County address.

Can you coordinate with my GC or engineering firm on a Austin job?

Yes, and we prefer to. In Austin we frequently run inspection ahead of a GC's repair or a developer's dig so everyone works from the same PACP-coded file. We don't sell the repair, so there's no conflict about what the video shows.

Do you handle commercial and municipal work in Travis County?

We do - lift stations, wet wells, storm drains, grease traps, and pre-construction utility verification on commercial and public sites across Travis County. COIs are issued to your GC or facilities team the same day you book.

How fast can CSC reach a job in Austin?

From our Cedar Park yard we're roughly 20 miles from Austin, so a booked crew is typically on your Travis County property the same day and within a two-hour arrival window. Emergency call-outs after mon - fri 7:00 am - 6:00 pm (after-hours available) are dispatched as soon as a truck is free.

Have you documented pipe inspection work in or near Austin?

Yes. "Offset clay joint under a live East Austin loading dock" was a general contractor job at a mixed-use retail shell, east austin near springdale and is written up at /case-studies/austin-east-clay-lateral with footage inspected 184 ft, defects coded 7, report delivered same day. 2 Austin jobs are published on this page with before and after camera stills.

What proof do I get that the Austin inspection was done correctly?

You get the unedited HD video, footage marks for every observation, NASSCO PACP defect codes, sonde locations for anything that needs digging, and a written report you can forward to an owner, engineer, or Travis County reviewer. NASSCO/PACP certified operators, 25+ years in Central Texas pipe work, and full commercial and municipal insurance with COIs issued the same day.

Do you have references from commercial clients near Austin?

Yes. 7 reviews from contractors, property managers, and facilities staff serving the Austin area are published on this page with names, roles, and the service performed, averaging 5.0 out of 5. We can also supply direct references on request before you issue a PO.

How quickly can a crew actually be on site in Austin?

Austin is about 20 miles from our Cedar Park yard, so trucks reach most Travis County sites within about an hour of a confirmed call. Emergency and after-hours mobilizations are quoted in writing before we roll.

What does a CCTV pipeline inspection cost in Austin?

Commercial CCTV pricing in Austin depends on footage, access, and whether the line needs cleaning first, so we quote per scope instead of a flat rate. Austin is about 20 miles from our Cedar Park yard, which keeps mobilization reasonable for Travis County sites. Send the line size, approximate footage, and access points to office@cspipeinspection.com or call (737) 618-0219 for a same-day number.

Do you camera inspect sewer and storm lines across Austin and Pflugerville, Lakeway, Bee Cave?

Yes. We run CCTV condition surveys on sanitary sewer, storm drain, and process lines throughout Austin and neighboring markets including Pflugerville, Lakeway, Bee Cave. Crews are NASSCO/PACP certified with 25+ years in Central Texas pipe work, so a single mobilization can cover multiple sites across the metro on the same day.

How quickly do we get the Austin inspection video and PACP report?

Standard turnaround is the same or next business day for Austin jobs. You receive the HD video, defect stills, footage marks, and PACP coded observations in a written report an owner, GC, or Travis County reviewer can act on without a follow up call. Rush delivery is available when a closing or acceptance date is driving the schedule.

Acquiring or renovating in Austin?

Get a pre-acquisition pipe inspection before you close on a Austin commercial site.

A property condition assessment usually stops at the slab. Our pre-acquisition CCTV survey runs a color camera from the cleanout or manhole to the city tap so Austin investors, property managers, and engineering firms know the true condition of the sanitary and storm lines before capital is committed. You get the video, a written PACP-coded defect log, and a repair scope you can price into the deal.

  • Scheduled dispatch that fits Austin due-diligence and bid deadlines.
  • Reports formatted for lenders, insurers, and reviewing engineers.
  • Tenant-friendly: we coordinate access with property management and site staff.
