This diagram shows several common pipe problems and how Mr. Rooter identifies and corrects the problem. The first is root intrusion with a cable fitted with root cutting blade. The second is a cracked or misaligned pipe with a camera showing its locator signal. The third is a pipe with belly and the fourth is a crushed pipe. Using the camera to inspect the line allows Mr. Rooter to find the exact problem and locate exactly where the problem lies.
