Proactive inspection is the most cost-effective tool in sewer asset management. TrenchX performs full sanitary sewer inspections using HD CCTV camera crawlers with NASSCO PACP defect coding, producing reports that are accepted by municipal utilities, regulators, engineers, and insurance providers. Each inspection documents pipe material, diameter, condition, defect type and severity, and precise location — giving asset managers everything they need to prioritize repairs, plan rehabilitation programs, and budget accurately over a multi-year horizon.

For systems subject to regulatory oversight, our inspection records provide the documented evidence of due diligence that protects utilities and property owners from compliance exposure. Routine inspection programs are scheduled to minimize disruption and can be structured around permit requirements, capital planning cycles, or reactive triggers like recurring backups.
