Drain and sewer line inspections are just one of the many plumbing services that Pipeshark offers. When is it worth the expense? Every situation is a little different and so we always have a conversation first about what the results of the inspection will change for the building owner. Most times there is a definite plus to having it done. But not always.
Most plumbers have drain cameras today so a video inspection of your piping can be done by your preferred plumbing company in the Philadelphia, PA area. Pipeshark uses sewer camera inspection that also has signal transmitters right behind the camera lenses. Using a separate receiver, we can pinpoint where the camera head is and what its depth is. That way if an issue is discovered, we can identify exactly where it is and how deep it is if it needed to be excavated. Hopefully, we would have other equipment that can fix any problem without digging it up, but it helps to know so we can give our client options.
“There are three main reasons to do a drain inspection. First, when there’s been a problem or some indication of a problem. A video of your sewer line can identify a defect that might be causing paper and organics to get caught in the pipe and begin a blockage. Second, if a remodel is planned it’s a good idea to check out the drain pipe hidden under the floor or underground before a lot of money is spent hooking new things up to an old pipe that might be defective or on the verge of collapse. Third, in a real estate transaction, it is often a good idea to evaluate the condition of the sewer line along with the condition of the roof, the electric, and other structural components. If everything is okay, there’s peace of mind. If there’s an issue, a price can be attached to the repair so both the buyer and seller can make informed decisions.
