Camera inspection · Montreal, Laval and the South Shore
When a drain keeps clogging or the basement has backed up, a camera inspection shows what is actually inside the pipe. Drains Fix dispatches an independent licensed contractor with the equipment, and the price is confirmed in writing first.

Unclogging treats the symptom. A camera finds the cause.
It was cleared and it clogged again within weeks or months.
Find out if roots, a collapse or a missing backwater valve let it happen.
More than one fixture slow at once usually points to the main line.
A persistent odour with no visible cause can mean a cracked or open line.
Many Montreal homes still have original clay or cast-iron sewer laterals.
A pre-purchase inspection of the main line can avoid a costly surprise.
Roots find their way into joints of older pipes.
Check the drains before closing up a basement or bathroom.
The contractor opens the closest access point, usually a cleanout in the basement, and pushes a waterproof camera along the line toward the street. You see the inside of the pipe on a screen as it moves.
The camera shows roots, grease, cracks, sagging or collapsed sections, offset joints and objects stuck in the line, and how far along the pipe each one is. That tells you whether a cleaning will be enough or whether a section needs repair.
You get a clear explanation and a written price for any next step. Nothing starts until you approve it.

When the same drain keeps clogging, after a sewer backup, when several fixtures drain slowly at once, when there is a sewer smell with no visible cause, or before buying an older house in Montreal.
A waterproof camera on a cable is pushed into the drain or sewer line. It shows roots, grease build-up, cracks, collapsed or sagging sections, offset joints and foreign objects, and where along the line the problem sits.
Ask the contractor before the inspection starts. Many can give you the recording, which helps with insurance claims and quotes for repairs.
No. It finds the cause. Unclogging, hydro-jetting or a repair is a separate step, and the contractor gives you a written price for it before starting.
