FAQs
Why should I schedule a camera inspection for my plumbing system in Greenback?
A camera inspection allows our technicians to see the inside of your pipes in real time without digging or cutting walls. We can pinpoint blockages, leaks, root intrusion, corrosion, or misaligned joints quickly and accurately. Knowing the exact condition of your plumbing means we can recommend targeted pipe repairs or upgrades, reduce guesswork, and help you avoid unnecessary excavation costs.
What types of problems can your camera inspection detect before a pipe upgrade?
Our high-resolution cameras identify cracks, pinhole leaks, collapsed sections, root infiltration, grease build-ups, scale deposits, and foreign objects. We also measure pipe diameter and material, verify slope, and locate hidden connections. This detailed assessment lets us determine whether a full pipe replacement, sectional relining, or a simple cleaning will provide the best long-term solution.
How does the camera inspection process work from start to finish?
1) We insert a flexible rod with a waterproof HD camera through an existing cleanout or a small access point. 2) As the camera travels through the pipe, live video streams to a monitor so you and the technician can watch together. 3) We note distances and mark problem spots above ground with surface locators. 4) Once the inspection is complete, we review footage, provide a digital copy, and discuss upgrade or repair options along with an upfront estimate.
What are the advantages of upgrading my old pipes after the inspection?
Upgrading aging or damaged piping increases water pressure, prevents leaks that can cause structural damage, and improves overall plumbing efficiency. Modern pipe materials such as PVC, PEX, or cured-in-place lining resist corrosion and root intrusion, giving you decades of maintenance-free performance. In many cases, upgraded pipes also raise property value and lower insurance risks because the plumbing is code-compliant and less prone to emergencies.
How much does a camera inspection and subsequent pipe upgrade typically cost in Greenback?
A residential camera inspection in Greenback usually ranges from $200 to $350, depending on pipe length and accessibility. If upgrades are needed, costs vary: small spot repairs start around $500, trenchless sectional relining averages $75–$150 per foot, and full pipe replacements can range from $3,000 to $8,000 or more. After the inspection we give you a detailed, fixed-price quote so you know exact costs before any work begins.
Will the inspection or pipe upgrade disrupt my yard or household routine?
Camera inspections are completely non-invasive and normally take under two hours, so there is no disruption to your landscaping or daily activities. For pipe upgrades, we prioritize trenchless methods whenever possible, which require only small entry points and preserve driveways, gardens, and hardscapes. If traditional excavation is unavoidable, we plan carefully, protect surrounding areas, and restore the site to its original condition once the job is complete.
