See the problem before you pay to fix it. On camera.
Under the island's beautiful streets runs some of the oldest sewer infrastructure in the county, and the lines from the houses to the street match it in age. Original clay, generations of tree roots, a century of service. When an island line starts backing up, the possibilities span everything from a simple clearing to a serious repair, and the price range spans with it. Before anyone starts talking numbers, something should be looking.
The camera inspection is that look. A small camera runs the line from the cleanout to the street, sending back live video, and the situation reveals itself honestly. Roots reaching through joints. Grease and scale from decades of island kitchens. A low spot, a crack, a shifted section, or a line that's simply old and fine. You're welcome to watch live, and the footage stays saved, which matters on an island where a big repair decision might involve an HOA, a neighbor, or a property manager. Evidence travels better than opinions.
Use it at the moments that count. Before approving any significant repair. Before buying one of Coronado's historic homes with its original line included. Before writing off recurring backups as island charm. The camera replaces the guessing with knowing, and the knowing is yours to act on, at your pace.
"They scoped the line before we bought and found roots the seller never mentioned. That inspection saved us thousands."
