Sewer Line Repair in Yaphank, NY
In Yaphank the sewer lateral — the run from the house to the public main — belongs to whoever owns the property, not to the utility. There are 2,416 occupied homes here, and across all the housing the median build year is 1986 — the best single clue to what the pipe is made of and how it tends to fail.
In short
Corrosion along the invert is what a cast iron lateral does, and cast iron is the likely material beneath Yaphank, whose housing typically dates from 1986. Lost bore reads as a blockage, and rodding does not restore it.

What went in the ground around 1986
A lateral laid in Yaphank in that period is most likely cast iron on the house side and early PVC beyond it. Cast iron corrodes along the bottom of the pipe, so capacity is lost gradually rather than suddenly. More on cast iron laterals.
What a camera survey should settle here
On cast iron the recording should dwell on the bottom of the pipe, where corrosion channels and scale collect. The full picture on cast iron laterals.
