Pipes are an essential component of every plumbing system, which means pipe problems must be addressed sooner rather than later; however, sometimes it’s difficult to know what approach to take if the reality of the situation is unknown. Plumbing camera inspections give you access to video footage of the inside of pipes, offering the visual evidence needed to determine whether an issue exists, how severe it is, and how to address it effectively.
There are many things that a plumbing camera inspection can uncover, such as the following:
- FOG – Fats, oils, and grease should not go down the drain, but they are still often found inside pipes and can create problematic blockages.
- Tree Roots – If tree roots have grown into pipes due to cracks, only a plumbing camera inspection can confirm it in a noninvasive manner.
- Corrosion & Cracks – Plumbing camera inspections give you a look into the condition of your pipes, showing you corrosion and cracks that may jeopardize your plumbing system, your property, and the safety of your water supply.
- Clogs – A camera inspection can be a good way to confirm that a clog exists before hydro-jetting.
- Lost Items – If you think you’ve lost something down the drain, like a ring or another small and sentimental item, a camera inspection may be able to tell you whether it’s still nearby and retrievable.
