Henderson Camera Inspection Service
Imagine this: you arrive home one night to find your sinks full of backed-up wastewater. That problem suggests an obstruction of your sewer line. Unfortunately, beyond that, there’s nothing about the situation that indicates the specific nature of the problem. Your sewer line may have a grease clog restricting water flow. Or, it may have tree roots growing into it, which is a much more complex problem to solve. But that’s only if you’re lucky. A backed-up sewer line could also result from a partial collapse of the sewer pipe itself.
A video camera inspection allows our plumber to identify the exact plumbing problem you’re facing. Using a borescope camera, we can reach the inside of hard-to-access parts of your plumbing. Best of all, we can do it without digging up your lawn or damaging finished walls, floors, and ceilings. An accurate diagnosis using a camera can ensure you choose the proper solution to your problem. That keeps your total costs as low as possible and increases the odds of a successful repair significantly.
You may want a camera inspection in the following situations:
- You’ve just purchased a secondhand home
- You’ve noticed multiple slow drains
- You’re having water pressure problems
- Your home’s sewer line is over 25 years old
You can also use a video camera inspection to stay ahead of your plumbing maintenance needs. Often, plumbers recommend annual preemptive drain and sewer cleanings. However, that’s overkill in many situations. A camera inspection can be a lower-cost way to see to what’s in your drains, and is also essential to prepare for any sewer repair work. It lets us analyze your plumbing without wasting money on unnecessary maintenance services or tearing up your yard or home to access pipes.
