FAQs
What are state-of-the-art plumbing cameras and how do they help diagnose main line issues in Gruetli-Laager?
Our high-definition inspection cameras are waterproof, self-leveling devices mounted on flexible fiber-optic cables. They travel through your home’s main sewer line and transmit real-time video to a surface monitor. This precise visual data lets our technicians see cracks, root intrusions, bellies, grease buildup, and other hidden defects without digging up your yard, ensuring faster, more accurate diagnoses for Gruetli-Laager homeowners.
When should I schedule a camera inspection for my main sewer line?
Book an inspection if you notice recurring clogs, gurgling drains, sewage odors, unexplained wet spots in the yard, or slow fixtures across the home. Camera inspections are also recommended before purchasing property, after major storms that may shift soil, and every 3–5 years as preventive maintenance to catch small issues before they become emergencies.
Will a camera inspection damage my pipes or landscaping?
No. The process is completely non-invasive. The camera is inserted through an existing clean-out or a small access point inside the home. Because we don’t excavate, your landscaping, driveway, and flooring remain untouched. Once finished, we simply retract the cable and leave the area exactly as we found it.
How long does a main line camera inspection take and what can I expect afterward?
Most inspections in Gruetli-Laager take 45–90 minutes, depending on the pipe length and number of problem spots. Afterward, our technician reviews the footage with you, pinpoints any trouble areas on a digital map, and provides a detailed report and video file. If repairs are needed, we’ll outline options such as hydro-jetting, trenchless lining, or spot repairs along with transparent pricing.
Can a camera inspection locate the exact depth and position of a pipe defect?
Yes. Our cameras are paired with a radio-frequency sonde that emits a signal trackable from the surface. Using a handheld locator, we mark the precise horizontal location and depth of any defect to within a few inches. This accuracy minimizes excavation size and cost if a repair becomes necessary.
Is a camera inspection cost-effective compared to traditional troubleshooting methods?
Absolutely. Traditional guess-and-dig methods can lead to extensive yard damage, higher labor costs, and missed problems. A camera inspection provides immediate visual confirmation, prevents unnecessary excavation, and helps plan targeted repairs. Most Gruetli-Laager homeowners recoup the inspection fee by avoiding exploratory digging and identifying issues early, before they escalate into costly line replacements.
