What Is Camera Inspection with PDF/Video Report?
A structured service where we CCTV-inspect sanitary and/or storm piping, record continuous video, capture stills, and electronically locate surface positions and depths at defects or tie-ins.
You receive a standardized PDF report and shareable video links with a priority matrix to guide maintenance, repairs, or capital improvements.
Why Choose White Glove Plumbing
Compliance & safety first: Confined-space, traffic control, and storm vs. sanitary routing awareness.
Defensible documentation: Board-ready PDF with maps, stills, distance logs, and cloud video links/QRs.
Beyond inspection: Same-visit clearing/jetting, descaling, and repair estimates when authorized.
One accountable team: We can camera, jet, repair/line, and sanitize—with a single point of contact.
Immediate Actions (What to Do Now)
Pause heavy water use in affected stacks/areas if backups are present.
Note times & locations of symptoms (gurgling, overflows, ponding).
Keep access clear at cleanouts, basins, manholes, and mechanical rooms.
Avoid chemical drain cleaners—they obscure cameras and damage piping/PPE.
Call our 24/7 dispatcher—we’ll schedule access windows and start your assessment.
Common Situations We Handle
Recurring kitchen/main backups in multi-unit buildings

Post-jetting verification and pre-lining documentation
Root intrusion/scale suspected in older cast-iron/clay lines

Survey, Asset List & Access Plan
Map cleanouts, basins, manholes, and outfalls; set tenant/traffic notices; confirm sanitary vs. storm scope.
Pre-Checks & Setup
Verify flow conditions; choose the correct camera head and pushrod; stage 512 Hz locator and dye (if tracing).
CCTV Traverse & Locating
Record continuous color video with distance overlay; locate & depth-mark critical points; capture stills of defects and tie-ins.
Visibility Recovery (As Authorized)
If the line is opaque with grease/silt, perform targeted jetting/flush to restore visibility and continue cameraing.
Findings & Priority Matrix
Compile a defect list (roots, offsets, sags, cracks, scale) with locations/depths; note access constraints and recommended methods.
Report, Links & Handoff

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you camera small lines (1½–2″)?
Often—with micro-cameras and gentle routing. For tight turns, we rely on flow tests/jetting evidence.
Will we get raw files?
Yes—cloud links to full video plus a PDF with stills. We can add QR codes for easy sharing in board packets.
Do residents lose water during the inspection?
We schedule low-use windows and request brief pauses in targeted areas only.
Can you mark the ground where the problem is?
Yes—paint/chalk marking with depth readings so repairs start accurately (and we’ll keep it discreet and compliant).
Do you offer NASSCO-style coding?
We provide a priority-coded matrix; formal PACP coding is available upon request.
Can you bundle jetting or repairs?
Absolutely—jetting, descaling, spot repairs, lining, and cleanout installs can follow from the same report.
