Video Pipe Inspection in Surrey, BC

Serving Surrey and the Metro Vancouver region

High-definition CCTV pipeline inspection for sewer lines, drains, and plumbing systems throughout BC properties.

Video pipe inspection — also known as CCTV (closed-circuit television) pipeline inspection — is the gold standard for assessing the internal condition of pipes without excavation. At LeakInspection.ca, we deploy state-of-the-art, self-levelling pan-and-tilt inspection cameras that navigate through pipes ranging from 50 mm to 300 mm in diameter, transmitting real-time high-definition video to our technician's monitor. This technology provides direct visual evidence of pipe conditions that cannot be obtained through any other non-destructive method.

Our video pipe inspection service covers the full range of BC property types and pipe systems. For residential properties, we inspect sewer laterals — the pipe connecting the home to the municipal sewer main — which are often the source of backups, slow drains, and odours. Older BC homes may have original clay, cast iron, or Orangeburg pipes that deteriorate over time, while newer homes with PVC can still suffer from root intrusion at joints, improper slope during installation, or damage from ground movement. For commercial and multi-family properties, we inspect storm drains, building sewers, and grease trap effluent lines, documenting all defects with footage and depth-referenced still images.

Our inspection process includes pre-inspection flow assessment, camera deployment with real-time footage review, defect logging with depth markings, and post-inspection report generation. Defects are categorized by type (crack, break, root intrusion, offset joint, bellied pipe, blockage, corrosion) and severity, following the PACP (Pipeline Assessment and Certification Program) coding system where required for municipal submissions. The video footage is archived and provided to the client along with a written report that includes condition assessments, defect locations, and prioritized repair recommendations. This documentation is essential for pre-purchase home inspections, sewer line insurance claims, municipal compliance, and planning trenchless repair solutions such as pipe relining.

About Surrey

Surrey's rapid growth means a mix of new construction and aging properties, with leak challenges varying by neighbourhood. Clay soils in South Surrey can cause foundation movement and pipe stress, while older areas in Whalley and Newton have aging plumbing systems. Surrey is BC's fastest-growing city with a housing stock divided between established neighbourhoods in Cloverdale and South Surrey and rapidly developing areas in City Centre and Newton. The clay soil prevalent in much of Surrey contributes to foundation movement and underground pipe stress, particularly during the seasonal wet-dry cycles. Older neighbourhoods with cast iron and galvanized steel service lines are at higher risk for underground water main and service line leaks.
