When Are Sewer Video Inspections Necessary?
When we conduct our sewer camera inspection services in Auburn, AL, our plumber gets to have a clear picture of the condition of your sewer pipes so that possible clogs, debris, and cracks can be identified. Our video camera inspections have a variety of applications, and so our team here at Cole Plumbing thought it would be helpful to list these uses down for you.
When Buying a New Home
A pipe camera inspection is fundamental and should be part of your due diligence before you purchase a new house. The reason behind this is that while your realtor may provide findings from a third-party video inspection contractor, it’s still in your best interest to get the pipe inspection done by a plumbing company that you trust. When buying a new house, you must remember that most house realtors are after making profits and may not reveal problems in the sewer lines.
It would be very frustrating to begin experiencing sewer problems once you have moved into your new house, so a sewer video inspection can spare you from potential problems and headaches later on.
Constant Sewer Problems
A plumbing inspection would be the next course of action to take whenever you have been experiencing frequent, almost constant sewer and drainage problems. Some sewer problems that would warrant a call to us for a sewer inspection include low water pressure, foundational leaks, and cracked pipes.
Dirty Water
You’ll need a drain inspection if you notice that your water is dirty or muddy, which will help identify any cracks in the sewer lines or what could be causing the discoloration other than cracks in the sewer line.
When an Inspection Is Long Overdue
Sewer systems need to be inspected at least once a year even when there doesn’t seem to be any issues. To be on the safe side, it is best to conduct a video inspection twice a year for older sewer systems. The inspection would help cut down on unnecessary costs involved with the repair of your drainage system.
