What contractors and homeowners say

What customers say about our cctv inspection work

  • Old clay lateral in Hyde Park, roots at every joint. They jetted it, ran the camera, and gave us a clean PACP-coded report the City accepted for the tap permit. No back-and-forth.
    Marcus H.
    Renovation GC, Central Austin · Austin, TX
  • Bought a 1940s bungalow in East Austin and the seller wouldn't budge on the sewer. Their inspection video showed a belly and two cracks - got $8k back at closing.
    Jenna R.
    Buyer, East Austin · Austin, TX
  • Underwrote a duplex in Mueller and needed a sewer scope before funding. Cavayoo turned around a PACP report same day with photos my inspector could read. Deal closed on time.
    Derek W.
    Mortgage Broker, Austin · Austin, TX
  • HOA in Zilker had recurring backups. Their crew mapped the whole shared line, flagged one bad tap, and the repair scope came in half of what another company quoted.
    Alicia M.
    Property Manager, South Austin · Austin, TX
  • Called on a Sunday for a kitchen backup in Tarrytown. Tech was out in under two hours, cleared the line, and left a video log we could send to the plumber. Worth every dollar.
    Ben C.
    Homeowner, Tarrytown · Austin, TX
  • They're right here in town so response time is unreal. Camera truck was on my driveway in Buttercup Creek an hour after I called. Fixed the diagnosis my plumber got wrong.

CCTV Inspection FAQ

Frequently asked

What pipe sizes can you inspect?

Our camera equipment covers small laterals through large-diameter sanitary sewer and storm mains. Share the diameter, footage and access points and we'll confirm the right rig for the job.

Do you provide NASSCO-based reporting?

Yes. NASSCO-based coding, defect logs and project-specific reporting formats can be provided when specified by the owner, engineer or municipal reviewer.

Can you inspect new construction before acceptance?

That is one of our most common projects. We help contractors identify construction debris, damaged pipe, improper connections, standing water and alignment issues in time to correct and reinspect before the final deadline.

What if the line needs cleaning before inspection?

Our vac trucks and jetting equipment prepare the line first. After cleaning, we complete the inspection and can perform a second run to verify the final condition.

What deliverables do I receive after a CCTV inspection?

Recorded MPEG/MP4 video, still images of every observed defect, a distance-stamped defect log, a written summary and - when specified - NASSCO-coded reporting. Files are delivered by secure download or on physical media if your municipality requires it.

How long does a typical CCTV inspection take?

A single lateral takes 30–60 minutes. Full sanitary or storm mains on a mid-sized commercial site run half a day to a full day depending on footage, cleaning needs and access. We'll give you a realistic window when we quote it, not an optimistic one.

Do you inspect storm drain and culvert systems, or just sanitary sewer?

Both. We run CCTV on sanitary sewer mains and laterals, storm drain systems, culverts, roof-drain leaders and any underground pipe we can access. If a crawler physically fits, we can inspect it.

Can you locate a defect exactly so my repair crew doesn't dig up the wrong spot?

Yes. Every defect is distance-logged from the access point and, when needed, we surface-mark the exact location with a sonde and locator so your excavation crew hits it on the first pass.

Will you inspect a line I already had someone else camera?

Absolutely - second-opinion inspections are a routine ask, especially on pre-purchase and warranty disputes. You get an independent report with the video to back it up.

What does a CCTV inspection cost?

Pricing depends on footage, pipe size, access, cleaning requirements and reporting format. Send plans, an address or a scope description and we'll return a firm, itemized quote - no vague hourly ranges.
