We need to see the problem before we can act. So, whether we’re maintaining, unblocking, or fixing your pipes, we’ll always begin with a plumbing camera inspection.
They are particularly useful for diagnosing the cause of recurring backups, with the technician looking for root intrusions and structural damage. You should also schedule an inspection if you have slow drainage, suspect damage, want to inspect a sewer line before a property purchase, or simply need to check and maintain older systems.
Our technicians will also conduct a drain camera inspection after removing blockages to check that everything is functioning as it should.
Issues We Commonly Find
Root intrusions and blockages from fat, oil, and grease are some of the most common issues identified with a video camera inspection. We also see a lot of cracked and collapsed pipes, especially in older homes, as well as separated joints, corrosion, and general deterioration.
Video sewer inspections will identify most issues with your system. So, if your drainage is a little slow, your bills are too high, or you have frequent backups, call Mr. Rooter® and ask about our sewer camera inspection services in Chesapeake, VA.
How We Check Your Pipes
Once you call for a sewer camera inspection, we’ll schedule a visit at an appropriate time and then send a team your way. Our technicians will look for an access point, such as a drain opening or cleanout, and then insert the camera.
They’ll guide the camera through your pipes and monitor the results in real time. They’ll look for blockages and damage and will document everything for repair purposes.
They won’t conduct any repairs until they’ve spoken with you and recommended a solution. You’ll get an upfront, transparent quote, as well as a timeframe, and can then choose how to proceed.
When Should You Schedule a Video Camera Inspection?
Our drain line inspection service will show you what’s happening inside your pipes without any digging or damage. It’s a targeted approach that should reduce disruption and repair costs, while also providing a rapid solution.
Even if you don’t have any issues with your drains currently, an inspection will pinpoint corrosion, cracks, and other issues that could lead to costly repairs in the future. We’ll also give you documentation so you can check the results yourself.
