FAQs
What is a plumbing camera inspection and why is it beneficial for South Pittsburg homeowners?
A plumbing camera inspection involves inserting a waterproof, high-resolution camera attached to a flexible cable into your drain or sewer line. The real-time video feed allows our licensed technicians to see the exact condition of the pipe interior, pinpoint clogs, cracks, root intrusions, or other defects. For South Pittsburg homeowners, this means quicker diagnostics, less guesswork, and the ability to fix issues before they escalate into costly repairs or property damage.
How does a camera inspection help with drain opening services?
By visually locating the blockage’s type and position, our technicians can choose the most effective drain-opening method—whether that’s hydro-jetting, mechanical augering, or targeted root removal. This precision reduces service time, minimizes disruption to your yard or flooring, and ensures the clog is fully cleared rather than temporarily pushed aside.
Can a camera inspection detect problems other than clogs?
Yes. Besides blockages, the camera can reveal pipe corrosion, joint misalignments, sagging or ‘belly’ sections, broken or collapsed pipe segments, and tree-root penetrations. Detecting these issues early helps you schedule preventive maintenance or plan pipe replacement before an emergency occurs.
Will my yard or driveway need to be dug up for a camera inspection?
No. Camera inspections are non-invasive. The camera is introduced through an existing cleanout, drain opening, or fixture access point inside the home. Because there’s no excavation, you avoid landscape disruption, extra labor costs, and lengthy project times.
How long does a typical camera inspection and drain opening service take in South Pittsburg?
For most residential jobs, a full camera inspection takes 30–60 minutes. If a blockage is found and cleared during the same visit, total service time generally ranges from 1 to 2 hours, depending on the clog’s severity and the chosen removal technique. Larger homes or complicated sewer lines may require additional time.
Is a camera inspection worth it if my drains seem to be running fine?
Absolutely. Many plumbing issues develop quietly over months or years. Early detection—such as spotting small root intrusions or minor corrosion—allows you to act before you experience backups, foul odors, or structural damage. Given South Pittsburg’s mix of older and newer housing stock, routine inspections provide peace of mind and help preserve your plumbing investment.
