FAQs
What kinds of advanced diagnostic tools do you use for commercial plumbing in Harrison?
We combine several non-invasive technologies, including high-definition CCTV camera inspection, electronic leak detection, thermal imaging, ultrasonic flow monitoring, and hydrostatic pressure testing. These tools let us pinpoint blockages, hidden leaks, pipe wall deterioration, and cross-connections without shutting down your building or breaking concrete unnecessarily.
How does a CCTV sewer camera inspection benefit my facility compared with a traditional exploratory dig?
A robotic camera crawler travels through the pipe, delivering real-time 1080p video that we review on-site. We can see cracks, root intrusion, scale buildup, and collapsed joints instantly, mark their exact depth and location with on-board sonde transmitters, and provide you a digital recording. This eliminates guesswork, reduces labor costs, and prevents damage to landscaping or slab areas in your Harrison property.
Can your diagnostic tools find leaks under concrete floors or behind walls without shutting down operations?
Yes. We use acoustic correlators and infrared thermography to detect temperature changes and sound variations caused by water escaping under pressure. These methods work through concrete and drywall, meaning we can isolate a leak to within a few inches while your business continues operating, minimising downtime and repair expenses.
Are these advanced tests compliant with Harrison and State of New York plumbing codes?
Absolutely. Our hydrostatic pressure testing, backflow assessments, and cross-connection surveys conform to New York State Plumbing Code, Harrison Department of Public Works requirements, and ASSE standards. We provide written test reports and certification forms that your insurance carrier, local inspector, or facilities manager can file for compliance records.
How long does a full diagnostic survey typically take on a commercial property?
For a mid-size commercial building (20–40 plumbing fixtures and up to 300 ft of sewer line), most surveys are completed in one business day. Larger complexes may require additional days, but we schedule work in phases—after-hours or weekend slots are available—to avoid interrupting tenants, restaurants, or retail traffic.
What is the cost and what factors influence pricing for these diagnostic services?
Pricing is based on pipe length and diameter, building accessibility, number of fixtures, and the specific technologies required. A basic camera inspection for up to 150 ft starts around $595, while a comprehensive package that includes leak detection and hydrostatic testing may range from $1,200 to $2,500.
