Video Sewer Inspections

Ever Wonder Why Your Neighbors Are Lining Up to Get Video Sewer Inspections in Atlanta? Video Sewer Inspections in Atlanta Help You Avoid Disaster

For most people, a blocked sewer pipe means breaking out a jug of caustic chemicals and hoping that the problem is resolved. But with the advent of video sewer inspections, all of the guesswork and finger-crossing is eliminated. By sending a tiny video camera down the pipe, we can see exactly what is going on with your clogged pipes. This immediately informs us as to what we need to do to get your sewer pipes flowing freely once again.

Without a video inspection, it’s really anyone’s guess as to what’s causing the water to dribble out of your faucets, glurg in your toilets, and leak through your cabinets. Going in blind makes it nearly impossible to know what’s causing your sewer or water line to back up. Some of the problems above could be resolved with the right chemicals, but do you know which ones to use, and when?

Until a qualified plumber can actually see into the pipes, it’s impossible to give you a fair and accurate estimate, and that means you could be paying for plumbing work you don’t need – or not getting plumbing work you do need. For the most reliable diagnosis and repair plan, and video sewer inspection is the way to go.

Sometimes we get to go on a treasure hunt! Many people are surprised to learn that everything that goes down drainpipes doesn’t immediately get washed away to the wastewater treatment plant. We have been able to locate and retrieve precious items that were accidentally flushed down the toilet or dropped down a drain. Car keys, wedding rings, and watches are just a few examples of the things we have rescued from sewer lines. Just imagine what could be in your pipes.

Don’t worry; you’re not going to end up with a yard that looks like it was attacked by gophers. We don’t just start digging at random; we know exactly where to start. The cameras we use are equipped with transmitters. We send the camera down the pipe and leave it at the damaged area. Then, we go out to the yard and wave a locating device over the suspected area. It indicates when we are on top of the transmitter inside the pipe. The spot is marked so that we know where to dig to replace or repair your damaged pipe. By the time we’re done, you’ll be amazed at how well your plumbing works – and that your yard is not the mess you dreaded it would become.

The short answer is that the trick is getting it to go as far as we need it to go – and no further than that. We can send the video camera down your pipes to the juncture where your sewer lines meet the municipal sewer system pipes. For some homeowners, this could be as far as a few hundred feet. Even with a pipe breach that’s spewing a geyser in your yard, it’s impossible to identify the location of all of the issues without getting an inside look.

Don’t wait for a serious plumbing problem caused by blocked underground pipes. The thought of having sewage spraying into your home from a sewer pipe problem – or a fountain of water gushing all over your yard from a water pipe problem – is enough to make most homeowners nervous. If it happens to your neighbor, your home may be next. Don’t let it happen to you when getting a video inspection can catch big problems before they become huge problems.
