What Is a Sewer Condition Assessment?
A sewer condition assessment is a detailed evaluation of a sewer pipeline, recorded on CCTV and scored with standardized defect coding. It tells you what’s wrong, where it is, and how serious it is.
A basic sewer camera inspection shows you a problem. Our sewer camera assessment services grade it, log it, and tie it to a location, so you can compare pipe segments side by side. Each assessment includes:
- PACP defect coding: a standard code for each crack, root, or break
- Structural grading: how sound the pipe wall is
- O&M grading: buildup, roots, and other maintenance issues
- Infiltration and inflow: where groundwater or stormwater gets in
- Depth and location tracking: where each defect sits
- Lifecycle evaluation: likely remaining service life
- Rehabilitation recommendations: repair options matched to the findings
That’s how cities, HOAs, resorts, irrigation networks, mines, and production facilities rank repairs and spend capital budgets where they count.

How Our Sewer Assessment Process Works
Four steps, from a clean line to a report your team can plan with. Here’s what happens once the crew arrives.
01
Clean
Debris hides defects, so we recommend cleaning the line first. Hydro jetting clears grease, roots, and sediment so the camera can see the pipe wall.
02
Record
A CCTV crawler travels down the line under high-intensity lighting. It records video the whole way while tracking location and depth.
03
Grade
Certified inspectors assign each defect a PACP code. Then they grade the structural and O&M condition and flag any infiltration and inflow.
04
Report
You receive video, images, defect logs, grading summaries, and GIS data if needed. A lifecycle evaluation and repair options, like trenchless sewer repair, come with it.
One CCTV Crawler for Sewer Mains, Manholes, and Laterals
One portable crawler handles city mains, plant piping, and resort lines alike. Here’s what it brings to the job and what it covers.
CCTV Crawler
- REACH: up to 800 feet of mainline
- LIGHTING: high-intensity, for sharp video of the pipe wall
- TIRES: interchangeable, set up for different pipe conditions
- LOCATING: depth tracking from above ground
What It Inspects
- SEWER MAINS: 6-inch to 24-inch sanitary lines and long municipal trunk runs
- LATERALS: service connections, where accessible
- MANHOLES: assessed to MACP standards
- PRIVATE SYSTEMS: plant piping, HOA lines, and resort infrastructure

NASSCO-Certified PACP, MACP, and LACP Sewer Inspection
Engineers, city staff, and outside reviewers will all read your inspection data. Standardized coding is what makes it hold up. Our inspectors are certified by the National Association of Sewer Service Companies (NASSCO) in:
- PACP (Pipeline Assessment Certification Program): sewer mains
- LACP (Lateral Assessment Certification Program): service laterals
- MACP (Manhole Assessment Certification Program): manholes
All reporting follows NASSCO standards, so you get consistent, defensible, engineer-grade documentation for municipal, commercial, or industrial infrastructure.
Engineer-Ready Reports for Cities, Utilities, and Property Teams
Inspection data only helps if the people planning the work can use it. Our reports are formatted for public works and utility managers, engineering consultants, asset managers, capital planning teams, and property managers.

When Should You Schedule a Sewer Line Assessment?
Most teams call us when one of these lands on their desk:
- A CIP is due and you need real condition data behind it, not best guesses
- The same line keeps backing up: and you want the cause, not another quick fix
- Trenchless rehab is on the table: confirm the line suits CIPP lining before you commit
- Your asset management program needs fresh data: track asset condition over time
- A developer is handing over new lines: check them before they become your problem
- A big storm just rolled through: look for new damage and added inflow
- You run a large private system: resorts, irrigation networks, mines, and production facilities face the same questions
Why Choose Us
Here's Why Our Clients Love Us!
Three reasons teams bring us in before the next repair.
Depth and location tracking marks each defect from the surface, so crews go straight to the problem spot.
Graded data shows which segments need work now, so repair budgets go to the worst lines instead of being spread thin.
Findings point to trenchless options first, so repairs can often be done with minimal to no digging.
REAL CUSTOMER STORIES
Why Utah Utilities Want the Data Before the Dig
When a line continues to fail, the usual script is a guess, a bid, and a torn-up street. A regular assessment of sewer system conditions flips that order. Our sewer assessment specialists hand you the footage, the defect grades, and a report your engineer and your council can both read before anyone talks about repair.
Scott has helped me multiple times at 2 different houses with tree roots growing in my pipes at one. Very quick to help & knowledgeable. Highly recommend.
Andie Blossom
Super helpful with major clogged line. Work was completed quickly and efficiently, and cost was much less than competitor. Highly recommend this company and will definitely use for any future needs.
Nancy Ledford
We had a few companies come out and give us a bid on lining some of our sewer line & restore piping were the most professional, kind & fair with pricing! They did a great job & the guys who did the service were top tier! Highly recommend them as a company.

Common Questions
Common Questions About Sewer Pipe Condition Assessments
How is a sewer condition assessment different from a sewer camera inspection?
A camera inspection gives you the video. A sewer condition assessment gives you the video plus a record an engineer can work from. Every defect gets a PACP code and a grade, and we log its depth, its location, and any spot where groundwater is leaking in. Chasing one problem? A camera inspection is usually enough. Planning capital work or a rehab project? You’ll want the assessment.
What is PACP defect coding, and how are pipes graded?
PACP is NASSCO’s Pipeline Assessment Certification Program, the industry standard for describing sewer defects. Each defect, like a crack, root intrusion, or offset joint, gets a set code and a grade from 1 to 5, with 5 being the most serious. Structural and O&M problems are graded separately. Because everyone uses the same codes, engineers, contractors, and city staff can compare data without translating it.
Do sewer lines need to be cleaned before an assessment?
We recommend it for the most accurate results. Grease, roots, and sediment can block the camera’s view and cover cracks or joint gaps on the pipe wall. That makes it harder to judge the real physical condition of the line. Cleaning first provides inspectors an unobstructed view, so the grades reflect the pipe itself, not what’s sitting in it. We’ll talk through whether your line needs it before scheduling.
What pipe sizes and lengths can you inspect?
We assess 6-inch to 24-inch sanitary sewer mains, laterals where accessible, manholes, and long municipal trunk lines. The mainline crawler reaches up to 800 feet, and the portable setup works in plants, production facilities, resorts, and HOA properties. If your lines fall outside that range, get in touch before scheduling and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
What's included in the final assessment report?
Your report can include full video files, high-resolution images, PACP defect logs, and condition grading summaries. If your project needs it, you’ll also get GIS-compatible data for mapping and asset management tools. It’s all formatted for public works departments, engineering consultants, utility managers, and property teams, so your engineer can use it for design and your board or council can use it for budgeting.
How often should a sanitary sewer system be assessed?
It depends on the pipe. An aging clay trunk line that keeps getting roots deserves a closer eye than PVC laid a few years ago in a quiet subdivision. Local rules may set a minimum, too. Many utilities put assessments on a recurring cycle within their asset management program and check the riskiest lines more often. After a big storm, repeat backups, or right before a rehab project, a sanitary sewer condition assessment makes sense, whatever the calendar says.
