Sewer Camera Inspection: what we take care of

  • Locating the depth and position of problem spots
  • Identifying roots, cracks, offsets and sags
  • Pre-purchase sewer inspections
  • Checking for the pipe types we expect in Upland’s mix of housing (older downtown and Euclid Avenue homes, mid-century tracts, and newer homes north of the 210)

Signs it needs a professional

  • Soggy patches over the sewer line
  • Previous drain cleaning brought up roots
  • Repeat clogs in the main line
  • Any of the above in a Upland home that has not had its plumbing checked in years

Why Upland homes need sewer camera inspection

Upland climbs uphill from the 10 toward the San Gabriel foothills, and the housing changes as you go. Around Historic Downtown and the Euclid Avenue corridor, there are older homes on mature lots with long-established trees. Near Foothill Boulevard, the old Route 66, where the Madonna of the Trail statue stands at Euclid, you get a mix of older and mid-century homes.

Mature trees in Upland neighborhoods often send roots into sewer joints, and the camera shows how bad it is. Upland draws on local groundwater and canyon water as well as imported supply, and the water is hard enough that mineral scale is a regular factor in fixture and heater problems.

Serving all of Upland

North of the 210, around the Upland Hills and up toward San Antonio Heights, homes are generally newer and larger. The citrus-grove history of the city means a lot of older lots still have big trees, and tree roots are a frequent reason we end up working on Upland sewer laterals.

  • Historic Downtown Upland around Second Avenue
  • neighborhoods along Euclid Avenue north and south of Foothill Boulevard
  • San Antonio Heights and the foothill streets above 24th Street
  • the Upland Hills area
  • the Colonies area near the 210
  • streets near Cable Airport and Mountain Avenue

Working in Upland

From our Rialto shop we usually take the 210 west to Upland and get off at Euclid Avenue, Campus Avenue or Mountain Avenue, depending on which part of town we are headed to. For homes south of Foothill, the 10 and Euclid can be faster.

Many Upland streets north of Foothill Boulevard are lined with big trees, and the citrus history means some lots still have old trees close to the house. Those roots are hard on clay sewer laterals, and that is a big reason we bring a camera on Upland drain calls.

Up toward San Antonio Heights, homes sit on slopes at the base of the mountains, which affects water pressure and how sewer lines are graded. In Historic Downtown around Second Avenue, older homes and small businesses sit close together, so we plan access and parking before we arrive.

Why get a sewer camera inspection?
