A CCTV sewer inspection allows us to identify blockages, cracks, root intrusion, and pipe damage without excavation. Using high-resolution cameras, we provide detailed reports to help municipalities, businesses, and homeowners maintain their sewer systems efficiently.
Hydro excavation is a non-destructive digging method that uses pressurized water and an industrial vacuum to remove soil while protecting underground utilities. Unlike traditional excavation, hydro excavation minimizes the risk of damaging gas lines, water pipes, and fiber optic cables.
Before starting any excavation project, you should:
✔ Call 811 to locate underground utilities.
✔ Schedule a professional utility locating service for accuracy.
✔ Use hydro excavation instead of mechanical digging to prevent damage.Green Earth Environmental provides utility locating and hydro excavation services to keep your projects safe and compliant.
A cross-bore occurs when a utility line (such as a gas line) is accidentally installed through an existing sewer or drainage pipe, creating a serious safety hazard. Cross-bore prevention involves CCTV sewer inspections to detect and prevent dangerous utility conflicts before they cause leaks, explosions, or sewer failures.
For municipalities and commercial properties, we recommend annual sewer inspections to prevent costly repairs. For homeowners, an inspection every 2-3 years or before buying a property can help detect hidden issues before they become major problems.
Signs of a sewer line blockage include:
✅ Slow drains throughout your home or business.
✅ Gurgling sounds from toilets or sinks.
✅ Sewage odors inside or outside the property.
✅ Standing water or soggy spots in your yard.If you notice any of these signs, schedule a sewer inspection immediately to prevent major backups.
Flush vacuum cleaning uses high-pressure water jetting and an industrial vacuum system to clear sewer lines of grease, debris, and sediment buildup. It’s essential for preventing sewer backups and maintaining efficient wastewater flow in commercial and municipal sewer systems.
