SCHEDULE SERVICE
When a drain in your Broomfield home keeps backing up, guessing gets expensive. A sewer camera inspection lets you see the inside of your main line on a screen, foot by foot, so the fix matches the actual problem.
Big Apple Plumbing has a Broomfield office on Depot Hill Road, and our crew runs camera inspections across the city, from the original streets of Broomfield Heights to newer homes in Anthem and the Broadlands. We show you what the camera sees and explain it in plain terms.
Call (720) 900-1003 to schedule a sewer camera inspection in Broomfield.
What We Look For in Broomfield Sewer Lines
Shifting soil and settled pipe
A lot of Broomfield sits on expansive clay soil that swells when it gets wet and shrinks when it dries. Over the years that movement can pull joints apart or let a section of pipe sink. The result is a belly that holds water and waste, and the camera shows exactly where it starts and stops.
Aging clay pipe in older neighborhoods
Homes in Broomfield Heights and the blocks around Midway Boulevard went up in the 1950s and 1960s, and many still have their original clay sewer lines. Clay holds up for decades, but joints loosen and roots find their way in. A camera inspection tells you whether you are dealing with a few bad joints or a line near the end of its life.
Problems in newer homes too
A newer house with PVC pipe is not automatically in the clear. We still find construction debris, poorly supported pipe and offset joints in homes that are only 10 or 20 years old. If your newer home has a drain that keeps acting up, the camera usually explains why.
Signs a Broomfield Home Needs a Sewer Camera Inspection
- A clog you already paid to clear comes back within weeks
- Water backs up into a basement floor drain or shower
- Toilets bubble or gurgle after a load of laundry
- There is a sewer odor in the yard or basement
- You are buying a home and want to know what is under the lawn
- You need proof of the problem before deciding on a repair
If the line is fully blocked when we arrive, we clear it with a cable machine first. Then we run the camera to find out why it clogged.
What to Expect During the Inspection
We start at your cleanout, which is usually in the basement, crawlspace or near the foundation outside. The camera head goes into the line and travels up to 100 feet toward the street while we watch the live picture. We stop at anything worth a closer look, like a root mass, a crack or standing water, and note how far it is from the access point.
Once we are done, we go over the findings with you on site. You will know whether the line needs a cleaning, a repair in one spot or full sewer line replacement, and whether trenchless sewer repair is possible. For larger repairs, Wisetack financing is available.
Scoping a Sewer Line Before You Buy in Broomfield
Most home inspections do not include the sewer line, and the line from the house to the street is the owner’s responsibility once you close. A camera inspection takes the guesswork out of that part of the purchase. Buyers in 80020, 80023 and 80021 use our findings to budget for repairs or to ask the seller to handle them.
Leaking or broken sewer lines can cause extensive damage and health hazards. If you notice issues, don’t delay! Call for emergency plumbing services to repair or replace your sewer line promptly.

Sewer Camera Inspection FAQs
Is a camera inspection worth it on a newer Broomfield home?
If a drain keeps clogging, yes. Newer PVC lines can still have offset joints, sags from settling soil or debris left from construction, and the camera is the only way to see them without digging.
What if my home has no cleanout?
Some homes do not have an easy cleanout. In that case we look for another access point, such as pulling a toilet, and we explain the options before we start.
Do I need an inspection before a sewer repair?
We recommend one. Seeing the line first lets us size the repair correctly, so you do not pay to replace pipe that is still in good shape.

Recent plumbing jobs in Broomfield, CO
Main line stoppage cleared
The main sewer line was stopped up. Jason cleared the stoppage through the cleanout and got the line draining again.
Kitchen sink drain cleaning
The kitchen sink was clogged and backing up. Jason removed the trap piping under the sink, snaked the line 75 feet to clear the stoppage, reinstalled the drain and ran water to confirm it was flowing.
Bathroom sink drain and vent repair
The master bath sink had no proper vent. Disraeli cut out the old S trap and installed a new 1.5 inch sanitary tee, a new P trap and an air admittance valve so the sink drains and vents correctly. He also ran a new 1.5 inch sump pump discharge line outside.

They were able to get to us on the same day we called. The communication was excellent. Disraeli our technician explained everything he was doing and why. Unfortunately he had to complete the work in our crawl space which was an add cost. I thought the price I paid for the work was very fair. He also cleaned up the area he was working on under the kitchen sink. I would highly recommend Big Apple Plumbing. I know they are my go to company for not only our house but our 2 rentals we have!
I called late on a Saturday night of a holiday weekend and Jason called back, assessed the problem and came to fix first thing on Sunday morning. He was professional, explained every action he was taking and why, and was super easy and pleasant to deal with. This single woman really appreciated the respectful treatment and helpful suggestions for moving forward. Highly recommend!
So Thankful, to the Big Apple Plumbing team came home after a trip away to find our home with no hot water, and the water heater tripping the breaker. After speaking to Jason, who completely understood our frustration let me know the process and was able to get a tech, Disraeli onsite within a couple hrs (showed up early). Disraeli did an amazing job, I was shocked how quickly he was able to remove and replace the water heater and had hot water restored by that afternoon. Truly thankful!!
Disreali and Big Apple Plumbing were great! Great equipment, great price, great technician, and great service! Disraeli came out next day to check on my tankless water heater and was able to do a full replacement the following day. Extremely speedy! Having them back out this time next year to do my annual servicing. Can trust. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Big Apple installed new electric hot water heater for me today. The arrangements and installation were seamless. Jason the owner handled the entire transaction. I appreciate his competence and honesty. I knew exactly what the job would cost and was amazed that Big Apple delivered and installed a new hot water heater in less than 2 hours. I’d recommend Big Apple Plumbing to anyone needing an honest and reliable plumber. Thank you.
Jason was able to answer my questions at the start, & he was able to be at our house replacing our water heater barely 2 hours later! Another 2 hours later & he was driving away with our old water heater and we were again enjoying hot water! Well done!
