FAQs
What is video pipe inspection and how does it benefit commercial properties in Mountain City?
Video pipe inspection is a non-invasive diagnostic service in which a high-resolution, waterproof camera is inserted into your building’s sewer or drain lines. Our licensed technicians view real-time footage on a monitor above ground, allowing us to pinpoint blockages, cracks, corrosion, tree-root intrusions, or misaligned joints without digging. For Mountain City businesses, this means faster problem identification, minimal disruption to daily operations, and accurate planning for repairs or preventive maintenance.
What types of plumbing issues can your video inspection detect?
Our commercial-grade cameras can identify a wide range of hidden issues, including grease build-ups, scale deposits, collapsed or offset pipes, punctures, bellied sections (sags), root penetration, foreign object obstructions, and early signs of pipe corrosion. We can also verify pipe material and diameter, confirm the exact location and depth of the issue, and document the overall condition of the system for insurance or compliance purposes.
Will video inspection disrupt my business operations?
Very little. The process typically involves accessing an existing clean-out or removing a toilet for camera entry. We do not need to excavate floors, walls, or parking lots. Most inspections for small to mid-size commercial facilities in Mountain City take 60–90 minutes, and your water service can usually remain on. If a brief water shut-off is required, we schedule it during off-peak hours to keep your business running smoothly.
How much does a commercial video pipe inspection cost in Mountain City?
Pricing depends on pipe length, diameter, accessibility, and whether you need a digital recording or written report. For most Mountain City commercial properties, inspections start around $350 for the first 150 feet of line, with additional footage billed at a modest per-foot rate. We provide a firm, upfront quote after learning the specifics of your site—no hidden fees.
How quickly will I receive the inspection results and a repair plan?
Immediately after completing the inspection, our technician reviews the live footage with you on-site, pointing out problem areas and answering questions. Within 24 hours, you’ll receive a secure link to the video, still images, and a written summary. If repairs are needed, we include a detailed proposal and timeline so you can make informed decisions quickly.
Is video pipe inspection safe for older or fragile pipes?
Yes. Our cameras are designed with smooth, rounded edges and flexible push rods that glide through cast iron, clay, and PVC pipes without causing damage. We adjust camera head size and push force to match pipe condition, and we use hydro-jet or mechanical cleaning first if heavy debris could impede safe passage. This gentle approach makes inspection suitable even for decades-old plumbing common in some Mountain City commercial buildings.
