What is a camera sewer inspection?
A camera sewer inspection is a non-destructive method used to view the inside of pipes and tanks. Also known as CCTV inspection or video pipe inspection, it records images and sound and can be carried out over several hundred meters of pipeline.
Commonly used by sanitation professionals, this method helps identify installation defects, structural issues, cracks, collapses or blockages that restrict flow. By sending a camera through the pipe, technicians can thoroughly inspect the network and provide an accurate, detailed diagnosis of the condition of your system.
Depending on factors such as pipe diameter, connections or bends, different types of inspection cameras are used to match the specific configuration of your sewer network, whether the pipes are accessible or not.
We use advanced technical solutions to work on both new sewer systems (video inspection, leak testing, leak detection) and existing networks (video inspection, leak testing, smoke testing, leak detection and network mapping).

When do you need a camera sewer inspection?
A camera inspection can be useful in many situations, whether your system is new or already in service:
- You’re experiencing drainage problems: our Nantes teams use camera inspection to identify issues such as corrosion, cracks, pipe settling, faulty joints, and other defects.
- You suspect a hidden leak: camera diagnostics are a fast, non-destructive way to locate leaks accurately.
- You need to map your network: video inspection makes it possible to trace pipelines precisely and update sewer system drawings.
Camera inspection can also be performed as a preventive measure to evaluate the overall condition of your sewer system, including installation quality (for new systems), pipe and connection condition, network slope, infiltration risks, presence of abnormal elements such as roots or debris, and possible construction defects.
This service is suitable for industrial sites, private customers, municipalities and social housing providers throughout Nantes and the Loire-Atlantique area.
