Strict Diagnostic Scope Protocol: We perform optical inspection, distance-encoded telemetry, and digital recording only. We do not sell plumbing repairs, snaking, or excavation.
Objective Sewer Bore Video & Optical Condition Audits
High-definition closed-circuit sub-surface pipe inspections delivering timestamped, verified visual proof of lateral condition, structural offsets, and root ingress prior to committing to costly excavation or real estate acquisitions.
Three-Stage camera-first Optical Workflow
Standardized sub-surface inspection sequences ensuring verifiable condition logs from initial stack entrance to the municipal sewer tie-in.
Cleanout & Sonde Calibration
Locating structural access risers, basement cleanout plugs, or main drainage trapways. Transmitter testing confirms 512Hz sonde frequency synchronization prior to bore deployment.
Optical Push & Distance Tracking
Progressive insertion using high-tensile fiberglass push-rods. Continuous HD color optical recording tracks real-time linear footage, joints, offsets, root incursions, and slope transitions.
Delivered Evidence Dossier
Cloud delivery of timestamped MP4 inspection footage, high-resolution annotated defect stills, and an objective engineer-ready PDF assessment report for negotiations or contractors.
reference Diagnostic Equipment Fleet
Industrial-grade camera push systems and robotic crawlers designed to navigate Red River Valley clay shifts, legacy cast iron, and modern PVC lines.
REEL 200 PRO
Push-Reel Mini-Camera
Residential Laterals: 2" to 4" (50–100mm)
Ultra-flexible spring-mounted camera assembly engineered for tight 90-degree traps, toilet pulls, and foundation stack drops. Integrated 512Hz sonde transmitter for precise above-ground tracking.
CRAWLER ROV-X
Motorized Bore Crawler
Commercial Mains: 6" to 12" (150–300mm)
Steerable multi-wheel drive crawler equipped with continuous 360-degree pan-tilt-zoom optics, digital inclinometer for grade/fall percentage charting, and dual laser sizing reticles for offset measurement.
SCAN-LOC 512
RF Sub-Surface Locator
Surface Depth & Path Tracing
Precision electromagnetic receiver tuned to calibrate camera head positions through reinforced concrete, asphalt, sod, and deep backfill. Delivers accurate surface depth markings to within 2 inches.
Interactive Scope & Run Estimator
Test typical field dispatch parameters. All figures represent standard diagnostic baseline estimates based on regional Winnipeg pipe profiles.
Note on Field Feasibility: Active standing water, grease buildup, root ball impactions, and missing cleanout caps may alter the achievable push distance on-site.

Why Camera Inspection Does Not note a Remediation Outcome
Diagnostic cameras are optical evaluation instruments, not clearing equipment. While we achieve full runs through 95% of navigable laterals, physical sewer impediments can restrict optical transit:
Optical Submersion (Sags & Bellies)
When a pipe section holds standing water or sewage, the lens becomes submerged. Optical clarity drops until the camera surfaces past the bellied zone.
Total Root Impactions
Dense taproot masses can block camera head transit. We mark the exact surface depth and distance of the blockage, but cannot inspect downstream until cleared.
Structural Shear / Collapsed Tiles
Crushed vitrified clay or collapsed bituminous fiber pipe halts the push-rod. Our RF sonde marks the exact excavation strike point for your independent earthmoving contractor.
