FAQs
What is included in your FREE camera inspection for plumbing in Old Fort?
Our complimentary service involves inserting a high-resolution, waterproof camera through an existing clean-out or small access point in your home’s drain or sewer line. The live video feed lets our licensed plumber examine the entire interior of the pipe—spotting cracks, root intrusions, corrosion, grease buildup, or misaligned joints. You receive a detailed digital report, video footage, and professional recommendations, all at no cost and with no obligation to purchase additional services.
Why do you offer the camera inspection at no charge—what’s the catch?
There is no catch. We believe an informed homeowner is our best customer. By providing a free diagnostic, we can accurately show you the condition of your plumbing. If your pipes are in good shape, you gain peace of mind. If issues are found, you’ll already understand exactly what is wrong and can decide whether to move forward with repair or upgrades. Many Old Fort residents become long-term customers after experiencing our transparent approach.
How do I know whether I need a full pipe upgrade or just a spot repair?
During the inspection we evaluate the pipe’s age, material, diameter, and overall structural integrity. Minor, localized damage—such as a single hairline crack—may only need sectional relining or a small excavation. Extensive corrosion, repeated blockages, or multiple fractures often indicate the pipe has reached the end of its service life. We show you real-time footage so you can see the extent of deterioration and weigh repair costs versus the long-term value of upgrading to modern PVC, HDPE, or trenchless CIPP (cured-in-place pipe) solutions.
What upgrade options do you offer for aging or damaged pipes in Old Fort homes?
1. Trenchless CIPP Relining: We insert a resin-soaked liner that cures in place, creating a seamless new pipe within the old one—ideal for minimal lawn or driveway disturbance. 2. Pipe Bursting: A conical bursting head fractures the old pipe while simultaneously pulling in a new HDPE pipe, perfect for upsizing undersized sewer lines. 3. Traditional Replacement: For severely collapsed or bellied lines where trenchless is not feasible, we excavate and install schedule 40 PVC or cast-iron pipe with proper bedding and slope. Our plumber will explain the pros, cons, and price range of each method so you can choose what fits your budget and property layout.
How long does a typical pipe upgrade take, and will I be without water?
Most trenchless relining or bursting projects are completed the same day, with water service restored by evening. Full excavations can take one to three days depending on length and depth. We coordinate with you to shut off water only during critical steps—usually two to four hours—so household disruption is minimal. Temporary bypass lines can be installed if extended downtime is expected.
How do I schedule my free camera inspection and what should I prepare?
Call our Old Fort office at (828) 555-0133 or book online 24/7. We’ll confirm a two-hour arrival window. Please clear any personal items around accessible clean-outs (often in basements, crawl spaces, or outside walls) and refrain from running water 30 minutes before we arrive. The inspection typically lasts 45–60 minutes, after which we review the footage with you on-site and email the full report within the day.
