FAQs
Why should I schedule a professional sewer line inspection in Sunbright?
In Sunbright, many homes rely on aging clay or cast-iron sewer laterals that are susceptible to root intrusions, corrosion, and ground movement. A professional video inspection pinpoints hidden problems before they turn into messy backups, costly excavations, or property damage. Early detection allows for targeted repairs or trenchless solutions that save both time and money.
How is a sewer line inspection performed?
Our technician feeds a high-resolution, waterproof camera through an existing clean-out or a small access point. The camera travels the entire length of the lateral to the city main, transmitting live video to a monitor. We record pipe material, slope, joint integrity, obstructions, and any cracks or bellies. When needed, we mark depth and location with a line tracer so repairs can be made with surgical precision.
What warning signs indicate I may need an inspection soon?
Common red flags include recurring drain clogs, gurgling toilets, slow tubs or showers, sewage odors in the yard, or wet spots appearing along the sewer route. If your home in Sunbright is over 30 years old and has never had a camera inspection, it’s wise to schedule one even if you have no symptoms—many failures start silently underground.
Will the inspection damage my yard or plumbing fixtures?
No. Sewer camera inspections are completely non-destructive. We access the line through an indoor or outdoor clean-out, roof vent, or through a toilet flange if necessary. There is no digging, and your landscaping, flooring, and walls remain untouched. Once finished, we restore all fixtures exactly as we found them.
How long does a typical sewer inspection take and what happens afterward?
Most single-family sewer inspections in Sunbright take 45–60 minutes. Immediately afterward, our plumber reviews the video footage with you, points out any concerns, and provides a digital recording for your records. If defects are discovered, you receive a written estimate for repair options on the spot—ranging from hydro-jetting to trenchless pipe lining or spot repairs.
Is a sewer inspection worth it when buying or selling a home?
Absolutely. A standard home inspection cannot see inside buried pipes, yet sewer repairs can exceed $10,000 if problems surface later. Buyers gain peace of mind, sellers avoid last-minute negotiations, and real-estate agents reduce liability. In fact, many lenders in Sunbright now recommend camera inspections as part of due diligence on older properties.
