Sewer Camera Inspection in Sheridan, CO

What happens after you call

The number on this page connects you with an independent local plumber who serves Sheridan. Be ready to describe which drains are slow, whether water has backed up, and where the cleanout is if you know. The plumber clears the line if it is full, then runs a camera from the cleanout toward the main while watching the image live. Problems are logged by distance, and a locator in the camera head lets the plumber mark the spot on the ground. You can ask to watch and to keep the recording.

Sheridan conditions

Sheridan is a small, long-established Arapahoe County city bordering Denver on its west and north sides, near US 85, US 285 and South Federal Boulevard, with Fort Logan and Bear Creek nearby. An established city means established laterals, and older pipe is where joints loosen, roots enter and sections sag. A camera tells you whether a backup is a one-time clog or a sign the line is failing.

The sewer side is handled by Sheridan Sanitation District #1, listed on the South Platte Renew sanitation district contact list at 4101 South Federal Boulevard, 303-483-3259. Our sources do not confirm that it covers every Sheridan address or where its wastewater is treated, so check your bill. The water side is different: Sheridan is a Denver Water Total Service distributor, meaning Denver Water owns, operates and maintains the water system and bills customers directly. Don't confuse the city with the South Sheridan Water and Sanitary Sewer District, which is a separate entity. Our research could not verify Sheridan's building permit office, so if the camera leads to a repair, ask the plumber or the city which office issues the permit.

Sewer Camera Inspection questions in Sheridan

How do I find out which district handles my sewer?

Sheridan Sanitation District #1, at 4101 South Federal Blvd (303-483-3259), serves Sheridan, though our sources don't confirm every address. Your bill will show it.

Why does my main line keep clogging after it is cleared?

Clearing removes the blockage, not the cause. Roots, a sag or a crack can keep catching debris, and the camera shows which.

Can the camera tell what my sewer pipe is made of?

Usually. Clay, cast iron and plastic are distinct on screen, which helps when deciding on a repair.

How long does a sewer camera inspection take?

Often about an hour for a house with a cleanout, longer if clearing comes first.
