Expert Drain Camera Inspection in San Jose And Surrounding Areas, CA

Drain camera inspection lets Gomez Sewer and Drain see exactly what is happening inside your pipes before any repair work begins. A flexible rod with a camera attached is fed into your drain or sewer line. The live video feed shows cracks, root intrusion, blockages, pipe bellies, and joint separation in real time. Many homes across San Jose, Campbell, and Los Gatos were built with clay or cast iron sewer lines. These older pipe materials are common in Santa Clara County's pre-1980s housing stock, and they are prone to joint separation, root intrusion, and cracking from soil movement and seismic activity. A camera inspection pinpoints the exact location and cause of the problem. That means no guesswork, no unnecessary digging, and a clear picture of what your pipes actually need. Whether you are dealing with a recurring clog, a slow drain across multiple fixtures, or you are buying or selling a home, a drain camera inspection gives you the facts. Call Gomez Sewer and Drain to schedule yours.

5/5 stars – I was very impressed with Gomez Sewer and Drain. Ivan & his entire crew are wonderful! They showed up on time as promised, squeezed me in next day on the schedule, handled the problem quickly & efficiently, cleaned up beautifully, and sent me the emailed invoice, all within 24 hours! I'm a realtor of 23 years and had a back up in a condo I'm selling. I had no time to waste and they came to my rescue quickly! They made me look good to my clients. I have them on speed dial and part of my trusted team. I highly recommend you put them on yours.

I wanted to express my sincere gratitude to Fidel Gomez for his quick response and help! My daughter had a bit of a mishap by putting a toy down the toilet, and we were without a working toilet for nearly three months. A plumber came to fix it, but they initially suggested replacing the entire toilet. However, something just didn’t feel right, and I suspected the toy was still inside. To my surprise, when I called Fidel, there was a bubble bee inside! So, we owe him a huge thank you for his prompt assistance and for saving the day. He’s definitely my go-to plumber from now on.
