ONE NAME PER DEFECT. ON EVERY TRUCK YOU OWN.

The guys running cable, jetting, and camera on daily service calls.

Five techs, five explanations, one confused homeowner.

She cannot tell the difference between a real diagnosis and a sales pitch. She is not stupid, she is scared. A stranger in her basement is saying a number with four digits in it.

So she says she will think about it. That is not a tech problem. That is five people running five different systems.

AXEL · TRENCHCAM

WHAT CHANGES.

Every defect named the same way, whoever is holding the camera
Axel calibrates to the tech: mentor mode for the green guy, shorthand for the vet
Four experience levels, set with you at onboarding, never self-assigned by the tech
TrenchCam captures the footage and classifies the defect on site
She sees it in plain English on her own copy. He sees the full picture underneath

The field language

CABLE FIXES ONE OF THESE THREE.

Every defect that shows up in a residential lateral lands in one of three families. Your tech can clear the first one from the truck. The other two are the jobs driving off to somebody else, every week, because nobody proved they were there.

The pipe is intact. Something is in the way.

This is the cable and jet ticket.

Roots

At a joint, a crack, or a connection. Called by density and location, measured to the foot from the cleanout.

Grease and soft blockage

Kitchen line buildup, soft obstruction, partial to full.

Scale and encrustation

Cast iron closing in. The pipe is sound, the bore is not.

Settled debris

Sand, silt, gravel sitting in the invert.

Foreign object

Wipes, toys, construction debris, anything that does not belong.

Intruding tap or saddle

A connection cut proud of the wall, catching everything that passes.

18 defects. One name for each. Your green guy calls it what your best man calls it, and she hears the same word either way. That is the entire difference between a diagnosis and a guess.

What you already said out loud

FOUR SENTENCES EVERY OWNER SAYS. FOUR THINGS THAT STOP.

ONE FIELD LANGUAGE

EVERY DEFECT HAS ONE NAME.

Same questions. Same words. Same order. Whether he has been in the trade ten years or ten days. Axel calibrates how hard he coaches, but the diagnosis never changes.

TRENCHCAM

THE PROOF FILES ITSELF UNDER THE JOB.

Captured on site, classified on the spot, attached to the record before your tech is back in the truck. Nobody has to remember to send anything.

PROPOSAL ENGINE

THE PRICE IS ON THE SCREEN BEFORE HE LEAVES.

Good, better, best, with financing already in it. She sees what it costs and what it fixes instead of a number with four digits and a stranger in her basement.

AFTERMATH

THE PAPER TRAIL BUILDS ITSELF.

Signed Homeowner Record in her inbox before the truck is out of the neighborhood. Timestamped. Photographed. The job closes twice, once on the work and once on the protection.

TWO SPOTS. APPLICATION ONLY.
