Clogged drains can quickly become a homeowner’s worst nightmare—flooding basements, ruining weekends, and racking up costly repairs. In Montreal, where old pipes and freeze-thaw cycles wreak havoc on plumbing systems, finding the right solution is critical.

That’s where camera drain inspection comes in. At Flow Pro, we use advanced video inspection technology to get a crystal-clear look at what’s happening inside your drains—without any guesswork or digging.

Here are the top 5 reasons homeowners and property managers across Montreal choose camera drain inspection:

1. Precise Diagnosis Without Guesswork or Damage

Forget invasive digging or unnecessary pipe removal. A high-definition waterproof camera is inserted directly into your drain system, transmitting real-time video of your pipes. Our expert technicians can spot:

  • Blockages

  • Tree root intrusions

  • Cracks or collapsed lines

  • Grease and sludge buildup

This lets us pinpoint the exact issue and recommend the most effective fix—fast.

2. Stop Problems Before They Become Disasters

Montreal homes face unique plumbing challenges:

  • Tree-lined streets with aggressive root systems

  • Old clay and cast-iron pipes

  • Harsh winters causing pipe shifts and cracks

A camera inspection isn’t just reactive—it’s preventive. Regular inspections can:

  • Catch small issues early

  • Prevent sewer backups

  • Extend the life of your plumbing system

3. Save Time, Money & Your Property

Camera drain inspections are non-invasive, meaning:

  • No unnecessary digging

  • No damaged landscaping or flooring

  • Less labor = lower repair bills

Instead of tearing up your property just to find the problem, we diagnose with precision, reducing downtime and total repair costs.

4. Montreal-Specific Problems Need Local Solutions

At Flow Pro, we work on properties all over Montreal—from Plateau condos to Laval triplexes. Here’s what we see most often:

  • Tree roots choking older pipes in NDG and Villeray

  • Grease buildup in restaurant-heavy boroughs like Rosemont

  • Cracked sanitary lines in homes with old foundations

Our camera inspections help you stay ahead of local plumbing issues—with tailored solutions for your neighborhood and property type.

5. Peace of Mind with Expert, Transparent Service

We don’t just find the problem—we show it to you.

Every Flow Pro camera inspection includes:

  • HD video footage of your pipes

  • A clear explanation of findings

  • Honest, no-pressure recommendations

  • Competitive pricing with zero hidden fees

We believe in transparency, efficiency, and doing the job right the first time.

What Is a Camera Drain Inspection, Exactly?

We insert a high-resolution camera into your drain using a flexible cable. It travels through your system and displays live footage on a monitor. We can even record the inspection and provide the video for your own records or for insurance/real estate purposes.

Real Customers, Real Results

🔧 “We were dealing with slow drains for months. Flow Pro came in, did a camera inspection, and found a collapsed section of pipe—something two other plumbers missed.”

🚨 “We had recurring backups in our commercial kitchen. Flow Pro’s inspection revealed tree roots in the main line. They hydro-jetted them out same day. No more downtime.”
— Marco, property manager in Laval

DIY vs. Professional Camera Inspections: Not Worth the Risk

While consumer-grade inspection tools exist, they lack the clarity and reach needed for real diagnostics. Plus, interpreting drain footage isn’t easy. Our trained pros know what to look for—and how to fix it fast.
