Sewer Inspection, Drain, and Underground Plumbing Systems Precision Diagnostics
At Master Plumbing Services, we use advanced sewer inspection and line locating technology to diagnose hidden plumbing issues quickly and accurately — without unnecessary digging or guesswork.
Our state-of-the-art video inspection and tracing tools allow us to see inside your pipes, locate damaged sections, and map underground utility lines with precision. Whether you’re troubleshooting a blockage, planning an excavation, or preparing for a home sale, we can show you exactly what’s happening underground.
What We Can Do with a Sewer Camera
Our sewer inspection cameras give a clear, detailed view of your plumbing system — helping us diagnose issues that can’t be detected through standard plumbing methods.
VERIFY PIPE MATERIALS & CONNECTIONS
We identify your existing pipe types (PVC, cast iron, clay, copper, etc.) and check all connections to make sure they’re secure and up to code — critical information for renovations or property transfers.
FIND CRACKED, BROKEN, OR COLLAPSED PIPES
Video inspection reveals structural damage, broken joints, and collapsed sections before they turn into major leaks or backups.
IDENTIFY BLOCKAGES
We can see exactly where and what’s causing a clog — from grease buildup and roots to collapsed or offset piping. This helps us target the issue precisely and eliminate the problem efficiently.
Line Tracing & Pipe Location Services
When it comes to underground plumbing, knowing exactly where your lines run can save time, money, and headaches.
- Trace the full path of buried sewer and drain lines
- Pinpoint breaks, cracks, and separations without excavation
- Mark the depth and location of the issue for repair crews
- Map plumbing layouts for construction, remodeling, or property planning
Copper Line Tracing
We also specialize in copper water line tracing, helping homeowners, contractors, and excavators locate buried copper supply lines before digging or replacing water mains.
This service prevents accidental damage to underground utilities and provides valuable information for water line replacement, leak detection, and site planning.

My tenants clogged the toilet on a weekend, had to have Jesse come out on a Sunday to unclog. He was very prompt, arrived within the hour! Great service, very friendly. I highly recommend him!!!Posted on scott lopezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jesse did an amazing job. I called him because my septic pump in the basement was backing up and he was very willing to talk to me about my problem and help diagnose the issue. He showed up promptly. He was able to fix everything and get us up and running again. We are very appreciative of everything he did. He didn't take advantage of us and his pricing was very fair. Thanks again Jesse!Posted on Jim RTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Professional, on time, and priced right. They really do a fantastic job from start to finish. If you need any plumbing work give them a call.Posted on Ryan RobertsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We called around to other plumbers but none of them cared enough to work us into their schedules. One told us he would show up but then ditched us saying he didn't "realize" we wanted service. Another said they couldn't come out for a week. I called and he came out next day. He diagnosed the shower was leaking, which in turn destroyed our water heater. He repaired the shower leak, then installed a new water heater. He advised that the water heater should be moved to avoid the same issue in the future. He answered all the questions I had without issue, no eye rolling, no annoyed answers. He was very professional the entire time. He double checked his own work prior to leaving to ensure that there were no more leaks. He was great to deal with and will be our only call moving forward for any plumbing.Posted on Steph HaasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't say enough about Jesse at MPS. I had a septic backup on a Sunday filled my basement floor with the worst of all things feces. We called MPS and he was there in less than 45 minutes, he assessed my system i explained to him what I had tried to do already and he promptly isolated the issue and freed up the clog. He wasn't more than an hour to do it and ended up finding a larger issue in the piping system which must be addressed because it is the underlying issue that caused most of the problems we have had. REASONABLE, PROFESSIONAL and PROMPT. Thanks for everything Jesse my family appreciates you and your the first person I'll be calling for anything plumbing in the future. -Matt BieberPosted on Leona RobertsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Omg he was amazing. He came out the next day to replace out hot water heater cause the shower above apparently had a leak for a while and we didn’t know was happening. He came out fixed the leak and replaced the water heater and he moved it out from under the shower so it doesn’t leak. He was super nice and did amazing and fantastic work. He even answered all questions. Was super professional!Posted on Derrick HartmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My septic dosing tank alarm went off and i called master plumbing services to diagnose the problem. They were onsite first thing in the morning and able to trobleshoot the problem and replace my pump(gould), switches and properly mount a new junction box. He tested system and cleaned out all sand mound ports as well for a very reasonable price in one day.Posted on Sharon JacksonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were extremely appreciative of the timely service. We had no water and Jesse said that was a priority! He came asap and was very thoughtful and professional about the job. The cost was reasonable and he gave us good advice to upgrade our tank to put less stress on our pump. We would recommend you use this service. Thanks again

A: A sewer camera inspection uses a specialized waterproof camera attached to a flexible cable to view the inside of your sewer or drain lines. It allows us to see blockages, roots, cracks, and other problems without digging up your yard. At Master Plumbing Services, we use high-definition video cameras to provide accurate, real-time diagnostics.
A: In Macungie and Lower Macungie Township, a sewer lateral inspection is required before you can sell or transfer your home. The township wants to ensure private sewer lines are free of leaks, root intrusion, or damage that could allow groundwater into the public sewer system. Beyond compliance, a sewer inspection can also identify hidden plumbing issues before they turn into costly repairs.
A: Yes. We use advanced line tracing and locating equipment to find the precise depth and position of the issue — whether it’s a blockage, break, or offset joint. This eliminates guesswork and helps us make pinpoint repairs, saving you time and money.
